I have a new respect for Pepe this tournament. He's doing a real solid job for his team.

Yep, Pepe is a much better player when he cuts out all the unpleasant messing about.
Respectable first half. |

Decent half, that. Hopefully it doesn't tail off in the second forty-five.

Who here thinks Ronaldo will score the winner
Either in the second half In extra time Or In the Penalty shootout |

Pretty Good half and 1-1 is fair enough. Hope it doesn't get too nervy and defensive...

Don't really understand why Renato Sanches has featured so little in this tournament. Manager cant have much faith in him. Kid looks a talent though.

Maybe to save him for the tougher matches as he is still young I think it has been good man managment from the coach |

Would have needed a hell of a strike to beat the keeper at his near post from that angle.

Guys how was that incident in the 1st half a penalty?? The "cross" was about 5 metres over Ronaldo's head he was never going to get on the end of it, barge or no barge.

He got pushed in the box, whether he could get the ball or not doesn't stop something being a foul.
Now the incident vs Austria is a definite penalty as Ronaldo would have been able to have an attempt at the low cross, but if the cross was delivered and it was shanked about 10 metres above Ronaldo, and the Aus defender still yanked back Ronaldo, i can GUARANTEE the ref wouldn't give a penalty. |

Ronaldo's change into his lucky short sleeves doesn't seem to have made much difference. Decent biceps though, I guess

Talking of extra time, I liked the Copa America rule where, if a game goes to extra time, you are given an extra sub.

Poland play some nice football in the build-up. Portugal really do not.
