  It's still Portugal 0-0 France

  Referee blows the full-time whistle

  90+1' SO CLOSE! Gignac gets a ball in the box and turns brilliantly to fool Pepe and takes a shot on goal which evades Patricio and hits the post. Portugal must consider themselves mighty lucky

• 11 Jul 2016, 02:07 AM

  At last a good cross by France, not enough quality from the wide areas so far. Header by Griezmann also lacking quality. #PORFRA

  WHAT A MISS! Griezmann gets a great cross in the box and being unmarked he gets a lot of time to place his header past Patricio but he is slightly off the mark. That should have gone in.

  23' Referee calls for the stretcher and Ronaldo is off finally. Major blow to Portugal. It's a pity that a great player like him has to leave the field in tears. Quaresma replaces him.
