'Ronaldo might do something incredible, he's capable of it'.

Ten seconds later, misses a sitter.

Managers should be able to come together and agree to just bypass extra time if neither are going to bother.

I like the idea of having the pens first and then extra time after. If ET is drawn the winner of the pens goes through but the losing team on pens can win it by winning extra time. Gives them some impetus.

Been a few occasions where the French have got into good positions to shoot and just passed it to Mbappe instead. It almost feels like Ronaldo syndrome.

Trying so hard to maximise xG that no shot ends up happening. Slightly smaller xG is better than 0 surely?

I hadn’t seen much of Nuno Mendes prior to this tournament - think he’s a great player.

Wouldn’t fancy playing Portugal on pens, but they should’ve kept Bruno on as a near certain scorer

Both will hopefully be gone after this tournament. Hopefully whoever follows won't carry on the trend of wasting supreme attacking talent.

Rio defending playing a poor Ronaldo for 120 mins because “pens are around the corner”

If they’d played Ramos or felix earlier it might not have got this far.

He's been pretty poor since he's he injured his nose. Better off leaving as an impact sub, which sounds ridiculous given his talent.

I couldn’t believe they even rushed him back so quickly after the broken nose. Seems more desperation than anything.

Completely devoid of quality.

Portugal probably just edge it on points overall but think the French will win on pens.

Think Murphy is being overly harsh on Felix with that header, that’s a hard angle and he’s just been thrown on for last 15 mins having played only 90 mins all tournament

At least he gambled on far post and made it a chance

What’s the average number of goals per game in this tournament versus previous I wonder

Feels like a shit load of 0-0s and 1-1s etc

Not too bad to be fair

2.27

But the style of play for most teams is dull as dishwater

Just looking - Portugal have won 5 knockout games in 90 minutes since Euro 2004. That’s just baffling.

I couldn't bare it if Portugal do a 2016 and win it being shit the whole way through. The Ronaldo cream would be too much.

Dembele had such bad luck with injuries, he’d have been a top player otherwise (still a very good player but even better)
