Peeeeeeeeeeeep! Full-time! Wow, I need a breather here! What a finish to the game! Ron was given two chances and you don't just hand it on the plate to the Ballon d'Or holder!
The goal stands! Jeez! What a finish! Ronaldo, single-handedly, wins it! We thought it was Salah's night, it took Ronaldo two minutes to change that. What a player, what an athlete. What a night!
90+3' Shikabala tries hold the ball up top but he doesn't have enough juice in them legs. Portugal get it going again and win a freekick late on! Another goal?!
90+2' Ronaldo!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just when you thought this was Egypt's! You don't give him a free header! Beautiful cross by Martins and Hegazy mistimes his jump!
90+1' Martins with a slalom ish run on the left and he then manages to play a neat one-two with Bruno. The subsequent cross finds Ronaldo but he isn't able to get his shot away! Egypt get away with one!
86' Martins tries to make something from the right with his dancing feet, but his cross is safely blocked by the Egyptian defence. Been the story of the night for the Portuguese wingers who have hit a wall.
83' Egypt are doing their best impression of a homewrecker, upsetting Portugal's flow with the press and hold up play. I don't see Portugal scoring here, unless the great man pulls something out of the hat. I hope you know whom I'm talking about here...
80' Portugal have seen plenty of the ball after the goal but have looked so aimless. Neither have they crossed nor have they tried to go centrally and break the defensive hold of Egypt.
78' Substitution: Salah, the goalscorer, is off for Shikabala. The Egyptian Messi has left the pitch. One Ronaldo is still there. Can he make something happen?
75' Hegazy with a good cross-field pass for Trezeguet, but the latter's cross is blocked. Egypt win the second ball and manage to keep the ball in the opposition half...
