    What game to watch? Flicking between the games. Not sure England have enough quality to be involved with the top teams currently. Lots of work for Tuchel! The Dutch keep annoying the Spanish with resilience!

    Portugal 4-2 Denmark (4-3 agg)

    That was the chance to secure their final four spot!

    Diogo Jota sprints forward and finds Bruno Fernandes. He does well to hit his first-time strike on target but there is Kasper Schmeichel to the rescue.

    Re: Jonathan and how great the Portugal game is. Spain-Holland is proper good. Breathtaking. Incredible speed and quality. Best match I've watched in a long time.

    Really clever stuff from Bernardo Silva to get his body in between the ball and the man. He feels some contact and wins his side a free-kick.

    Lamine Yamal clips in a dangerous ball towards the near post but Virgil van Dijk uses every inch of his frame to head it clear.

    Is this the moment!?

    Kylian Mbappe is picked out by a ball over the top. He has just the goalkeeper to beat but struggles a bit to get the ball under control and that gives Dominik Livakovic the time to close down the gap and block the shot.

    Cannot believe this game!

    The Netherlands have come from behind three times and are currently nine minutes away from a penalty shootout.
