    G: Portugal knocking on the door...

    Joe Baker: Wasn't sure who I wanted to win this but the play acting and constant hassling of the ref by the Portugal players has made up my mind for me

    And now Thibaut Courtois to the rescue, with the Belgium keeper diving at the feet of Andre Silva at the back post to save.

    Where was this urgency earlier from Portugal?

    He's pulled his hamstring or he's got cramp or something. His touch has been great. When he's been out injured, maybe he should have gone out earlier. It might just be the tiredness.

    Oh, Ronaldo! Andre Silva's cross is aimed at the forward but after rising he can't make contact.

    Eden Hazard looks like he may have pulled a hamstring here. It was a challenge with Sergio Oliveira.

    He is replaced by Yannick Carrasco.

    Be a real shame for Hazard if that is an injury as he's just starting to show signs of the form we all know he is capable of.

    Anyway, back to the action...

    End to end. Bruno Fernandes' cross is headed away.

    Up the other end and Romelu Lukaku's touch lets him down as he tries to get in.

    Mark: Ronaldo is a phenomenal player & a true great. But free-kick wise he's nowhere near David Beckham quality

    Five minutes to go. Portugal desperate, Belgium digging in.

    Belgium buy themselves a breather by winning a free-kick near the Portugal box.

    Romelu Lukaku hits it but completely Ronaldo's it up.

    Portugal trying every trick in the book. Disgusting team full of cheats.

    BIG SAVE!

    Thibaut Courtois to Belgium's rescue as Ruben Dias gets in front of his man to plant a header on target. It is straight at the keeper, but he does well to get his hands up to parry.

    Now Toby Alderweireld is booked for a foul on Joao Felix. The referee is dishing the cards out, but it's becoming like the wild west out there.

    Andre Silva heads over as Portugal continue to test the Belgian defence.

    I don't think the referee has this game under control anymore. He's not blown on free-kicks that are free-kicks and he's blown on things that aren't free-kicks and the players are getting very frustrated.

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 78 mins

    Danilo is on for Joao Palhinha. Sergio Oliveira replaces Renato Sanches.

    Romelu Lukaku was sent tumbling as well during all that madness. He needs a moment as Portugal make some more changes...

    Pepe that is a shocking tackle. The referee has done absolutely right giving him a yellow card. There was no need for that at all.
