Slovenia really should be winning this.

Portugal look weak as piss at the back and they can't seem to take advantage of some good chances.

Pretty clear that Martinez has no authority over the out of control Ronaldo.

Ronaldo needs to let someone else have a go at free kicks

Why are the commentators going on and on every time there's a free kick? They have all been terrible.

Ronaldo would rather get eliminated than not be centre of attention.

Mad ego stroking. Portugal could go out here by desperately trying to secure Ronaldo the scoring record.

This and the Belgium Vs France game have lightened my mood about England

Really hoping Slovenia win this.

Spain the only “big” nation who seem to be in good form. Germany have stuttered a bit and were lucky the other night. Italy out, France were flat earlier and Portugal struggling here.

Tournament is wide open I think.

100% agreed. We’ve had our struggles, definitely but we looked more likely to do something against Slovenia imo. All these ‘smaller’ teams can afford to put 10 players behind the ball to qualify on 3 points. In the R16 they just to frustrate and hit teams on the counter as Slovakia did yesterday.

He seems to be constantly on the pitch and behind the play, that offside was miles off

Ronaldo then, misplaced pass, he stands there sulking while Slovenia attack. Guys a prick. I would love to flick him hard with a ruler on his massive Adam's apple

Georgia didn’t do that in any of the games to their credit, it was a joy to watch compared to the utter shit that Southgate enjoys serving up with far better players at his disposal. Likewise how Spain got the job done.

The main thing you can moan at ronaldo about is him taking every free kick no matter where it is ..

The balls into box for the most part have been dreadful , the one good chance he actually had he should have put it far post but hit the keeper

Portugal v Slovenia - 0-0 ‘absolutely brilliant from Slovenia and how they defend as a team’

England v Slovenia - 0-0 ‘England are playing shit and they’re poor, no energy and so on’

More or less what the BBC crew had to say about both games. It’s amazing what a bit of bias does. Slovenia have proven themselves to be a tough nut to crack and had the best chance of the game too. At major tournaments it really pays to be defensively minded.

Ps. Pundits talking about the playing surface as a an excuse for Portugal

They had the least defensive actions per press in the tournament so their style of play was definitely counter attacking. It is because they’re a minnow that the perception is changed to them being more positive than they were in reality.

I liked the way Georgia were quick in transitioning the ball when they won it back. Kind of how we played in 22/23 with Hamer and Vik.

The commentator would fill his pants. He's acted like he was going to score every free kick so far.
