From being involved to the point of embarrassment against Slovenia, Cristiano Ronaldo may as well not have been playing in defeat to France. Oh dear, Roberto Martinez.
Cristiano Ronaldo was all smiles during the anthem before the famously jovial footballer pointed animatedly to which side of the pitch he wanted at kick-off to Michael Oliver’s great bemusement, as the referee appeared to be questioning – as we all did – where this crazy, carefree cat has been for the last two decades.
Even more so in the second half as Portugal raised the tempo. Cancelo played a wonderful pass with the outside of his foot through for Fernandes, who didn’t bother looking up and took on a first time shot which was well saved by Mike Maignan. Vitinha then played a lovely one-two with Leao but hit his effort straight at the France goalkeeper.
Pepe roared with delight having tackled Marcus Thuram after a lung-busting run with the France striker. There was a brilliant block by the 41-year-old madman, and also from Nuno Mendes, Ruben Dias, Dayot Upamecano and Saliba. It felt like it would take a long, long time for either team to score.
