Ivan Perisic scored twice to give Croatia a 2-1 win over Mali in a World Cup warm-up match on Saturday.
The Wolfsburg striker netted his first in the 14th minute after a perfect pass by Ivan Rakitic, who was also provider for the second from a corner in the second half.
Khalifa Traore converted one of Mali's rare chances in the 79th minute, although he appeared to have scored from close range with his hand.
Croatia attacked for most of the match, which saw both coaches make numerous changes.
Croatia will play host Brazil in the World Cup opener on June 12 in Sao Paolo, with Mexico and Cameroon the other teams in their Group A.
