    Croatia (left graphic) touched the ball 10 times in the opposition area. Portugal (right graphic) had six touches.

    It almost looks like both sides actively avoided touching the ball in the opposition area, judging by the heatmaps above.

    Ronaldo has a man massaging each calf. I have no idea why. It's not like he used either of them much during that 90 minutes.

    Both teams have had a little huddle and we are ready for extra-time. If you are still with me, well done. No seriously, well done. You're tolerance for awful football knows no limit.

    Peter Budd: Please please no more! I will never moan about an England performance again after this match  

    Shane Daly: I know if I turn this game off, I will miss the most incredible 30 minutes of football ever played. It would be typical.

    A little closer to home, the Daily Telegraph have an interesting slant on Roy Hodgson's contract talks...

    It's a different sport, but considering how dull this game is - and the fact England have hammered the Aussies in another sport - we thought you might like this from the morning newspapers down under...

    Purple tentacle: I think this must officially class as a nil nil loss. For both teams. And those watching.   

    David Pitch: The magical elves of accuracy have entirely deserted both attacking thirds.

    Three minutes have been added to the 90. We are into them now.

    Portugal (16 &17) have had two shots in this half, both on target. Croatia's four efforts were also off target.

    What chance of a late goal? If the tournament as a whole is anything to go by, not much. Just 19 of the 72 goals so far have come in the final 10 minutes.

    It would help if we had even a single shot on target in this game.

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 88 mins

    A late change for each side. Ricardo Quaresma comes on for Joao Mario for Portugal, while Nikola Kalinic replaces Mario Mandzukic.

    Vedran Corluka to the rescue. Just as Portugal look to have found some rare space in the Croatia half when Renato Sanches runs away from a challenge, the defender slides in to intercept a pass out to the left.

    We have had quite a few late goals in this tournament. Are we going to get another? Please let there be another, just to spare us extra-time.

    There should be a rule that if both sides want to bin extra-time and go straight to penalties, they can do it.
