Yes I was thinking the same thing. I can see Portugal equalising soon.

Not sure about that Beefy. They don't concede too many. No real chances for Port.

They work their arses off mate. Can't believe they can keep up with that work rate.

If they do, fucking fair play, it's fucking amazing. Shows how a small nation really stick together.

In three games they haven’t conceded and only allowed six shots on target from the opposition. Very decent record suggesting they have a game plan and stick to it

They'll have to play now ;-)

Work rate dropping off a bit from Uruguay now.

What a fucking goal by the way

What a goal, but what a fuck up from Portugal.

It's probably the best I've seen, without the England influence.

For me 86 was special because it was my first one and 94 because of Sweden reachit the semi final. But just looking at the entertainment value objectively, this one really is one of the best (so far).

When a player goes off like Cavani did I always think he's given up, yet they're in front.

Bernardo is the leader of this team. Very much impressed.
