Welcome huja. Great to see you back
Huge shot from Sissoko and GK put to the challenge. Save made. 33". Sissoko has been a difference-maker so far.
Scoreless at HT. Strange mood hanging over the game. It seems a lot of energy was sucked out after the injury to CR7. France was the better team for about 40 minutes but have nothing to show for it. Dangerous. Now a fluke bounce or one-in-a-million shot could steal this championship for Portugal . . . or it could go to PK's and create countless ulcers and grey hairs around the world.

You have to think all the pressure is now on France. Portugal is free and clear of expectations at this point. If Portugal loses, the players just shrug and point to CR7 on the sideline. If they win, they are heroes. No downside.
On the other hand, if France loses, they lose . . . at home . . . to a Ronaldo-less Portugal side.
