HALF TIME: Portugal 0-0 Uruguay

A rather underwhelming first half of football. Both teams have barely managed to get a clear chance at goal except the Bentancur solo run for Uruguay which could not go into the back of the net due to a brilliant save by Diogo Costa. All to play for in the second-half. 

45' Additional Time: 3 Minutes

44' Mathias Oliveira goes into the referee's book for a challenge on Bruno Fernandes.

42' Substitution for Portugal: Raphael Gurreiro replaces Nuno Mendes.

39' Ruben Neves is booked for bringing down Guillermo Varela as Uruguay try to hit Portugal on a counter.

38' Ronaldo also goes for goal in a hopeful shot from distance, but the result is a great block from the Uruguayan low block.

36' Bentancur on the act again. He fails to get the hold of a cross from left but there is Darwin Nunez in the Portugal box but he too, cannot get to the loose ball. 

34' Bernardo Silva tries his luck from distance, but the shot is blocked.

32' WHAT A RUN! Bentancur goes solo with the ball, goes past three defenders with a single touch of the ball and goes for goal. Diogo Costa makes him look big and denies a wonder goal for Uruguay!

30' Nothing to choose between the two in terms of goal scoring opportunities as we complete the first thirty minutes of this mega fixture.

26' Portugal using the wings a bit more as they are not able to create any opportunity through the middle lines. Uruguay resilient.

22' Portugal have looked the better side so far in the game as he approach the half-hour mark. They have had more possession of the ball, and most importantly useful possession in the Uruguayan half. However, the end product is missing. They are not able to find gaps in the Uruguayan defence and are kept at bay by the South Americans. It is likely that Uruguay are looking to soak in all the pressure and try attacking Portugal on counter.

20' Neves has an ambitious go at the goal but Diego Godin blocks.

18' Portugal get two corners in a row but nothing can muster for the European side as Uruguay are able to defend.

16' Vecino brings down Nuno Mendes just outside the Portugal penalty box down the left side. Free-kick for Portugal in a interesting position.

12' Bentancur is penalised again against Ruben Neves. A bit pushing and shoving here but the referee intervenes. Bentancur has to be a bit careful as he is already on a yellow card.

8' Shot from Bruno Fernandes but the shot is a bit loose, and goes skidding off the surface and the shot is wide.

6' Rodrigo Bentancur goes into the referee's book

4' Powerful strike from Carvalho but nothing really comes off it. Lot of venom behind the shot but not the direction.

2' Portugal with the early bit of possession but nothing much has happened yet, as both teams take time to settle down.

1' Kick-off! Uruguay get us underway here in their away white colours while Portugal have donned their home green and reds!

LINE-UPS ARE IN!

Portugal XI: Diogo Costa (GK), Nuno Mendes, Pepe, Ruben Dias, Joao Cancelo, William Carvalho, Ruben Neves, Bernardo Silva, Joao Felix, Cristiano Ronaldo (C), Bruno Fernandes

Uruguay XI: Sergio Rochet (GK), Jose Gimenez, Digo Godin (C), Mathias Olivera, Sebastian Coates, Matias Vecino, Rodrigo Bentancur, Federico Valverde, Darwin Nunez, Guillermo Varela, Edinson Cavani

Uruguay have tormented European opponents in the past and are likely to employ yet another low block in this fixture. The South Americans are dangerous on the counter and could potentially keep Portugal at bay with a low-scoring draw on Monday.

Portugal find themselves in the midst of another golden generation at the moment and will need to make the most of the talent at their disposal. Cristiano Ronaldo dispatched his penalty against Ghana and will hope to restore his confidence ahead of a potentially gruelling schedule of matches in this tournament.

Portugal and Uruguay are on an even footing as far as the head-to-head record is concerned and have won one game apiece out of a total of three matches played between the two teams. The previous meeting between the two teams took place in the 2018 World Cup in Russia and ended in a 2-1 victory for Uruguay, resulting in Portugal's elimination from the competition.Uruguay have won four of their last five matches against European nations in the FIFA World Cup but did lose their previous such encounter against France. Portugal have lost only one of their last nine matches against South American opponents in all competitions, with their previous such victory coming against Argentina in 2014.Portugal will be looking to win their first two group games in the FIFA World Cup for only the third time in their history - the previous two occasions in 1966 and 2006 saw the team reach the semi-finals.

Portugal are currently at the top of their group in the FIFA World Cup and have a star-studded squad at their disposal this year. The Iberian giants edged Ghana to a crucial 3-2 victory in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch in this second encounter.Uruguay, on the other hand, have made a disappointing start to their World Cup campaign and are in desperate need of a shot in the arm. The South American side played out a 0-0 stalemate against South Korea last week and will need to be clinical in this fixture.
