The Final: Portugal vs France - (10/7/16) KO 8pm, BBC1/HD & ITV1/HD
10 of 36
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.
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.

Is it on ITV as well then?!
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.

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.
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.

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.
