They need to start taking "injured" players off. Crack on with the game. This Portuguese left back is taking the piss.

I think Portugal have a decent team but they need Ronaldo to get injured so they can play with 11. He must have something in his contract that says he only comes off when he wants to. Replace with Jota and they will be a good shout to win the tournament .

[asfault]

i thought he actually did get the ball...

[Digger]

Well done ref lol repositioning the ball himself!

[TCEvo]

Entertaining half.

[and31]

Decent game to watch

[Speed 3]

Not enough 2m sideways passing for my liking. Far too reckless.

[TCEvo]

Sniper's found his usual target in Pepe.

I think this is game is going to ET and maybe penalties.

Is Ronaldo the only one on the team who is allowed to take a shot or free kick?

Yep (last scored a FK for Portugal in Mar 23).

Not at all, the captain decides

[type-r]

What a run, shame about the finish.

[g4ry13]

So wasteful....did all the hard work and then can't even pop a shot off on target.

[Bradgate]

This is so similar to the ENGSVN game in the group stage. Slovenia are incredibly well organised & disciplined defensively. They must be a nightmare to play against. Portugal have all the possession but for all their attacking talent they can break Slovenia down. Just like we couldn’t.

The pitch for is terrible, ridiculous that they didn’t have the pitches perfect for the tournament

[monty999]

Pepe reminds me of the villain in thunderbirds ( if anyone old enough remembers him ?)

[TCEvo]

[Digger]

I’m more than happy for CR7 to keep taking the free kicks

Something about a barn door and a banjo
