Portugal have done well since Ronaldo went off but I fully expect the French to up the pace in the second half. They've been too pedestrian at times.

Interesting half. Portugal certainly the better team at the latter part.

Don't remember seeing Pogba much. Sissoko doing a good job.

France could have won this in the first ten minutes if they kept the pressure on and tempo high, but then they bafflingly decided to slow the play down.

Rumours that Ronaldo's knee has been sorted and he's about to be subbed back on.

Very tame half. Game has been dead since Cristiano got hurt.

Best 45 minutes I have ever heard from Hoddle - it helps when he has no England and especially no Spurs players to talk about.

We'll have to take your word for it as nobody else is watching ITV

I've always been an awkward so and so

Pathetic I am reduced to posting about the commentators, but there was damn all worth mentioning about that half aside from Ronaldo leaving the game.

Well my money's on France , they can't play any worse and they have three subs to use with a much stronger bench .

I am, since the alternative is Guy Mowbray. I would rather watch Albanian coverage streamed to a smartphone than that.

Good tackle against Ronaldo imo,, in fact the tackle on Sanchez looked worse

So boring, was listening to music instead of the commentary.

Shaqiri's goal has to be the GOTT.

The pundits said he wanted to leave his mark on him etc

Robson-Kanu is the best goal for me. The Belgian defence are still heading in the wrong direction now.

I wonder where Hal Robson-Kanu will be playing at the start of the new domestic season.

Nice bit of honesty on ITV: "Not going to try and fool you there. It was a pretty lousy first half."

Probably but a few good ones there.

What's the point of that vote? You don't even win anything.

Definitely. Some great goals there for sure.

But Shaqiri's ability to pull off that bicycle kick wins it imo.

Who do we think Ronaldo wants to win this match now? I think it would kill him if Portugal finally won an international tournament, without him.
