00:00What a very physical approach to the first half in Lisbon before being forced off with a knock.

00:05Here is João Felix, gliding forward, ball into Ronaldo, and look for the improvised finish with his back-to-goal.

00:12That's what they're capable of, just that little turn of pace.

00:19Maybe just on that parrot ball, difficult for him to play it.

00:23The other side of Ruben Neves, the angle looks to be tied off, there's a beautiful touch on Azaz, Scales goes early.

00:30Diogo Costa has taken a chance here, Parrots does their contact, Parrots stayed on his feet.

00:37Now we ask the referee...

00:39You can have a look at it.

00:42It's good football again by Ireland.

00:45Three or four times now they've played really good stuff, the keeper takes a chance.

00:49Troy Parrots got it, oh, the keeper's taking his legs away from him.

00:54The keeper's all, you know what I mean, you can't say you'd have touched him or you didn't.

01:00They're drilled in around the back, Scales wins the head and in!

01:06Troy Parrots!

01:10Lift off at the Aviva Stadium, that is a massive, massive goal!

01:15And no surprise, it is the man banging form Troy Parrots who's got it, the assistant Liam Scales.

01:21Beautiful delivery on the corner to the back post.

01:25And what about this now?

01:27Early days, but Ireland in front.

01:31This place has just erupted.

01:34It's gone berserk.

01:37But they've had a load of possession, the Portuguese, they haven't created as much as Ireland.

01:43Bodies in the box, it's a great delivery to the far post.

01:47They said Troy Parrots looked very, very sharp, late.

01:53He's ready, he's there.

01:541-0 Ireland, what a start.

01:56Well, he is the man with the hot hands.

02:00And Troy Parrots found himself in the right position.

02:05Brilliant assist, Scales would have been so easy.

02:08Pitinha, not just inside to Sean Felix.

02:12And now Ruben Neves.

02:14Unremarkable to think that goal in Lisbon was his first when you think back to those crackers he scored from outside the box.

02:30Sean Eves stepped in here and had a crack, and it certainly had Pellinger interested.

02:35I think he did have it covered at his right-hand post, but Sean Eves...

02:40Ruben Neves first, Sean Cancelo.

02:43He has there in the crossing position, and here he comes.

02:46Around the back, Sean Felix got off.

02:48And Seamus Coleman did an off a tough position to find herself in defending at the back post.

02:53Yeah, it's a good ball in, isn't it?

02:55But you need your defenders.

02:57Scales just caught waiting for it.

02:59Der O'Shea forward, that might turn into something.

03:02Tedosi Ogbeni.

03:05Let's go outside of Ruben Neves.

03:07Ogbeni, look at that boy, he's hit the post.

03:09The hair spread away, Tedosi Ogbeni from Ireland's seconds.

03:14Here's Ogbeni's chance, and I think the keeper gets fingertips on this.

03:19Going in the bottom corner, does he?

03:24No, nowhere close to it.

03:26So unlucky, Ireland again.

03:28There goes Cancelo.

03:32Has the speed to get there, he's beaten Scales.

03:34Shot Cancelo back onto his right.

03:36Scales recovers.

03:38Ronaldo.

03:39And then diving to head away was O'Brien.

03:42Bitinia.

03:45Dallow puts it in, a brave header.

03:47And the shot then, Kelleher forced to parry.

03:52Kelleher there again.

03:53Ireland struggling to get this away, João Felix.

03:56It will go behind.

03:58It's a corner, everyone appealing for everything.

04:02Portugal want a handball for an effort on the far side.

04:05Ireland running to the referee as well.

04:07Helter, skelter, frantic stuff here.

04:09Bodies everywhere.

04:11Here we go, Cancelo does go to Neves.

04:14Who does go to João Felix.

04:16Now João Neves.

04:20Bitinia curls it in, the numbers at the back post as well,

04:23and Dallow!

04:24Oh, he caught it well, but couldn't bring it down.

04:27Training ground, corner kick.

04:33Bitinia.

04:34Back into the shot, keeping Kelleher here.

04:36Ruben Diaz almost on his toes as well.

04:38It's the outswinger.

04:40Ronaldo gets up, got sleight of touch.

04:42Joe Felix, and back with Dallow,

04:44and the chances coming the way of Diogo Dallow again.

04:47Again, Ireland.

04:49Brilliant getting bodied in the way.

04:51He's got a problem to solve here.

04:54Certainly, look at the bench.

04:56He's got the ammunition to do it.

05:00There's one over the top.

05:02And Parrott, I think, is onside.

05:04Zaz might not have been.

05:05Troy Parrott shifts it, gets his shot away!

05:07Yes, he's shot away!

05:11Troy Parrott on the double.

05:15And talk about the cut amongst the pitches.

05:17This is dreamland for Ireland.

05:20We were hoping they might see it through to half-time.

05:22One-nil.

05:23It is two-nil, and Troy Parrott strikes again.

05:26Tell you what, there's a big commotion going on behind the box.

05:32Since Diaz has pushed Benet over, I think he was trying to get the ball up.

05:36I didn't see it all, but what a goal by Troy Parrott.

05:38Ball over the top, they're onside, all onside.

05:44Now he's got work to do, Troy Parrott.

05:47Runners outside.

05:48No, I'll go inside and cut to back in the near post.

05:52Two-nil.

05:53Just before half-time.

05:54Well, we've been five, six years maybe waiting for a situation like this one.

06:00It's only halfway there, but what a finish.

06:02Odds on, he was going far aside, but he pulled it near post.

06:06Diogo Costa couldn't react, couldn't get there.

06:09That is a man in form.

06:11That is Troy Parrott again.

06:13A run from Azaz was brilliant as well, outside him.

06:16Took one defender away.

06:18Portugal revert to the Bernardo Silva in-swinger.

06:22They've got that height of Vega now, and he's there at the near post.

06:25Gets the flick on.

06:26Oh, and Vitinha, a player of his quality.

06:29Completely missed his kick at the back post,

06:31but there's the danger of Bernardo Vega.

06:33Lovely near post touch.

06:35That's the warning of what they're going to do now, isn't it?

06:38Bring a man up.

06:40Neves, the space is out left.

06:42Dalo.

06:47Vega on the overlap, a little bit of space here for...

06:50John Neves, curls it towards the back,

06:52and Semedo got a touch.

06:54Could have gone anywhere off scales,

06:56fortunately for Ireland, into the gloves of Kevin Kelleher.

06:59Just about got there, Semedo, didn't it?

07:02Incessant Portuguese pressure.

07:04Vega's going to put it in, there's a man down in the box.

07:06A collision in there.

07:08And what, if anything, did the referee see?

07:10He's going to Ronaldo to the yellow card.

07:13And O'Shea ended up on the deck.

07:18Now he runs straight into him.

07:22Ooh, there's a swing of an elbow there, is there?

07:24Ooh, there's a swing of an elbow there, is there?

07:31This is big.

07:32Right on the owl mark.

07:34Then Nyberg called across.

07:42And there is the contact.

07:43It's this moment there.

07:45There was a tangle, a grab of Ronaldo's shirt by O'Shea,

07:47but the reaction from Ronaldo...

07:49It's an elbow right in the back, isn't it?

07:50There.

07:51It's got to be red, referee.

07:53I think he's going to go back pocket, is he?

07:57Yellow card.

07:58Oh, so that red card for Ronaldo.

08:03And that cheered as much as any of the parrot goals in the first half.

08:08A sarcastic applause from Cristiano Ronaldo to the Aviva crowd.

08:12So complimentary.

08:15About Dublin, about this stadium, about the Irish team and fans.

08:18Yesterday.

08:20The emotions of a far different nature now.

08:31Troy Parrott squeezes it through to O'Bene.

08:33He's going to take it on.

08:35Corner.

08:36Get a corner.

08:40Well, that's positive.

08:41Threaten straight away.

08:42Yeah.

08:43Parrott does well again.

08:44Be their biggest victory, you would think.

08:47Since that Italian game.

08:48But it's not over yet.

08:49Ramos!

08:50Oh!

08:51Great save, Pelleher.

08:53Well, he's had precious little to do so well.

08:55He's been protected.

08:57But he got down low to his left-hand side,

08:59off that instinctive effort from Ramos.

09:01Yeah.

09:02Signed of a great goalkeeper.

09:03Someone who hasn't had much to do at all.

09:05Down to his bottom left and gets it over there.

09:07The final whistle.

09:08An Ireland victory.

09:09A group where Ireland have been chaotically unpredictable.

09:10But in the best, best possible way tonight.

09:11The World Cup dream alive at the coast of the final day in Budapest.

09:13A win will still be needed.

09:14But what confidence they will take there.

09:15Off the back of this victory.

09:16With a clean shield against Portugal.

09:17The group started.

09:18But Adonidas rescuing a point against Hungary.

09:19a home.

09:20.

09:21Adonidas rescuing a point against Hungary.

09:22They had a win the number of fans.

09:23In fact, it wasn't her room.

09:24How are they?

09:25Where the team are going to be a king?

09:26And why are they?

09:27So it's impossible.

09:28That's incredible.

09:29But in the best possible way tonight.

09:30The World Cup dream alive at the coast of the final day in Budapest.

09:32A win will still be needed.

09:33But what confidence they will take there.

09:34Off the back of this victory.

09:35With a clean shield against Portugal.

09:36The group started.

09:37But Adonidas rescuing a point against Hungary.

09:38Point against Hungary.
