Former Everton midfielder Nikola Vlasic netted an equaliser just after the hour mark, to level the Group A3 contest.

However, Paris Saint-Germain start Kylian Mbappe bagged the winner, notching a 16th international goal with 11 minutes remaining from Lucas Digne's brilliant cross.

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial somehow side-footed wide from six yards out for France, while Ivan Perisic curled a free-kick narrowly over.

Croatia should have found another leveller in injury time but ex-Leicester striker Andrej Kramaric shot straight at Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris from inside the box.
