France looking a bit listless to me, now.

Ronaldo has come out onto the pitch to explain to the Portugese players what you are supposed to do when you get the ball. No one shows much interest. Sanches probably would have wanted to know, if he hadn't been subbed out.

It seems like Portugal may be looking less for a brilliant individual effort here and more for someone to manoeuvre the team bus into the French penalty box.

Portugal looking the slightly more interested team, now.

Half-way to the penalty shootout. A most unsatisfactory 15 minutes, that.

Ronaldo is speaking to Eder - either words of encouragement, or an explanation of what the f^>%ing net is for. I'm not sure which.

And a Frenchman gets booked for a handball by Eder! Happily, Portugal hits the bar with the free kick because that was an egregious error by the Ref.

But a minute later Eder, who has barely had a touch (except with his hand) scores a brilliant goal!!!!

So, how will France respond? Presumably, they'll try to go forward, finally.

France have only got themselves to blame for this. They've had a Ronaldoless Portugal for an hour and a half but they've rarely gone forward.

4 minutes to go. Portugal 1 France 0. Portugese players are cramping serially all over the pitch. So, will Eder be allowed back in Lyon, after this?

2 minutes left. Ronaldo is on the sidelines, doing the coaching.
