Offside, but still a good save by Randolph.

Is it just me or is this the dirtiest match of the tournament so far??
Ireland are very physical but they have to be as they can't match Belgium for footballing ability

Dembélé having a good game; Fellaini definitely not being missed.

Lukaku not worth his place again. Bring on the Liverpool kid, Origi.- at least he gets involved where it matters, even if he lacks some composure to take chances.

Long is perfect as the attacker for RoI's tactics in this match; relishes the physical battle, good header and will chase all day

Hendrick making mess after mess of good chances and openings.

Hazard has brought his awful Chelsea season form to the tournament.

It is a shame that their options are so limited up front, as for the most part the rest of the team is pretty good.

No point bringing on a centre forward who lacks composure in front of goal, when surely that would be the reason why you are bringing on a sub striker!

Wilmots needs to copy Hodgson and pull Lukaku off at half time and replace him with Origi. The way Lukaku is playing he could play for the next week and he will not score -I'm not sure he has even been in the Irish penalty area and he has done sweet FA outside of it.

Jeff Hendrick booked for stopping a Belgian attack by kicking another ball into the vicinity!

Don't think I've ever seen that before.

That's why you have players on the line. Good clearance.

That (in)famous beach ball at Sunderland comes to mind, as another ball getting hit by another one!

Regarding that Hendrick one, I would've thought that would be a drop ball rather than a free-kick?

Silly from Hendrick. Belgium Been so poor. All the possession but virtually no clear cut chances

Bit of a hit and miss that half, not too much to get excited about.
