00:00Look at this stadium, it's fabulous, isn't it?
00:03Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo plays the 1,330th game of his remarkable career.
00:10And he's got a World Cup hat-trick against Spain back in 2018.
00:14There is one change.
00:16Joel Felix replacing Rafael Leal on the left side of attack.
00:20This is such a star-studded team that the brilliant Bernardo Silva,
00:25who's just been transferred to Real Madrid, can't get in the team.
00:30Vettinia there, one of the best midfield players on the planet.
00:34As for Spain, unsurprisingly, field exactly the same XI,
00:38which was so impressive against Austria in the last round.
00:41Still no Nico Williams on the left wing,
00:44but Atletico's Alex Baena is doing very well in that role.
00:48Striker Mikel Oyapabal in the form of his career.
00:5317 goals in his last 16 starts for Spain.
00:57Four at this tournament.
00:59He can handle it.
01:01Here's Oyapabal here, in great form.
01:03Tries his luck early on, and why not?
01:13Laporte, Pedri, Olmo.
01:15Oh, it's beautiful football here from Spain.
01:18And Oyapabal doesn't take the chance this time.
01:22The football there was, the finish wasn't.
01:26And I think he's onside, Ian.
01:28As this ball is played, ooh, it's tight.
01:30I think he's just onside.
01:32The whole Portuguese back line thought he was off.
01:35And then the form he's in, you were waiting for the net to bustle there.
01:39It's a massive miss.
01:42Again, not 100%.
01:46Possibilities here.
01:47For Cristiano Ronaldo.
01:49The angle was difficult.
01:51Got a decent effort away, Mike.
01:58Very uncharacteristic giveaway from Pedri, who's been really flawless in this tournament.
02:03I thought Cristiano might take it for his time.
02:04Serbian on the golden boot.
02:08Rodri with a beautiful ball.
02:10Here's Yamal.
02:11On that left foot of his.
02:13Needed beating away by Eina.
02:16Oh, what a brilliant save.
02:18Brilliant save from Diogo Costa.
02:24This is what I alluded to early on.
02:27Nuno Mendes makes one of his marauding runs forward.
02:30Soon as Unai Simon got it in his hand.
02:33It's out to Rodri.
02:35Plays a great ball into Laminia Mon behind.
02:39First save.
02:39There's one of two quite spectacular ones as well.
02:43Oh, that's nearly in for Koubasi.
02:46He's in an offside position when he's played back in anyway.
02:49Flag does go up.
02:51A gaiety that Spain have to suddenly produce a killer pass.
02:56I think Dani Almo just offside.
02:59He's not in the play initially.
03:01Koubasi's there.
03:02It's a really awkward one for Diogo Costa.
03:05Doesn't do great to be honest.
03:07This is actually a big chance from Dani Almo.
03:14Neto's cross.
03:16It's good looking ball.
03:17Felix played it in.
03:18And flipped towards goal by Cristiano Ronaldo.
03:22But grabbed by Unai Simon who remains unbeaten and at the moment unbeaten as well.
03:32Well, theatrics all over the place.
03:35And Sean Felix does a great job to get on the end of this.
03:37Unai Simon flying like Superman at the first one.
03:42And then again on this one.
03:44I think he knew where the camera was on that one.
03:46But he had to be sure.
03:50He wants it back again.
03:51He's on his left foot as well.
03:52He can let go here.
03:53He does.
03:53It's the other side of the bar.
03:55Deflection on it as well.
03:57Wow.
03:58That is an escape for the Spaniards.
04:07You can see the danger there almost before it happened.
04:10Once they had Nuno Mendes on his left foot.
04:14Oh, what a...
04:17Sean Neves.
04:19To João Felix.
04:21Nice turn.
04:23Good idea.
04:23Ronaldo.
04:24Can he get there?
04:25Tried to hook it goalwards.
04:26He was on the stretch again.
04:32It's a clever little clip pass here.
04:35And you see Ronaldo pull away.
04:36They make eye contact just a little more quickly.
04:39Here's Dani Omo for Spain.
04:42Picking him apart.
04:43And then Pedri!
04:47Took a deflection.
04:48Will be a corner.
04:53This is so good from Renato Vega.
04:56Watch him come flying out.
04:57They're going to punch their famous neighbours.
05:01On the nose, as it were.
05:03Here's Lamine Yamal.
05:05Could he be the difference maker?
05:07Alex Baena.
05:10On the way by Cancelo.
05:12Not far enough.
05:13And then Baena again.
05:19This falls kindly to Lamine Yamal.
05:22In the build.
05:22It comes wide to Alex Baena.
05:23This is...
05:24Diogo Dalot.
05:25He's coming out.
05:26Manchester United.
05:28Player who can play either side.
05:37Cancelo will make way.
05:39Gallo will go to right back.
05:44And Leal.
05:46It is Lamine Yamal.
05:47He's gone for goal.
05:49It's a routine save, really.
05:52For Diogo Costa.
05:53Taking good head.
05:55Yeah, he struck it well.
05:56Just back to that point.
05:58If you have two out there, it freezes the line.
05:59If you have some.
06:00You can see Milan.
06:01Cloud.
06:04Beautiful.
06:05And then Fernandes.
06:06Lashes one.
06:07Into the side netting.
06:08He's the kind of player who could pull that kind of chance out of the bag.
06:12And make it count, too.
06:16Well, this is the first venture forward for Portugal in quite some time.
06:20Leal at the center of it.
06:22Then Rodri.
06:26Looking for the Reds' best ball.
06:28Dani Olmo.
06:29Difficult angle.
06:31It's a brilliant block by Ruben Diaz.
06:34Who he fires out.
06:36It's an excellent move from Spain.
06:38And just watching Leal's body on the line.
06:41Probably covered by Diogo Costa.
06:46Another Spain corner.
06:48Taken by Yamal.
06:50Goalkeeper.
06:51Yes, it may be.
06:56Fabian Ruiz.
06:59Took a little deflection on the way through.
07:02Which made it a tad more difficult.
07:04For the keeper, the judge.
07:09Possession squandered.
07:10Merino.
07:11Who is a scorer of big goals in his career.
07:15I wonder whether he might have a part to play.
07:22Yellow card.
07:23And here's why.
07:26And that's for Bernardo Silva.
07:28Who, by the way, did pick up ten yellows in the Premier League season.
07:33You wouldn't have thought that, but.
07:35Rodri.
07:37Free kick.
07:41Certainly unnecessarily given away.
07:46Lovely ball through.
07:48And there it is.
07:52Spain.
07:53Mikel Moreno.
07:55Mikel Moreno.
07:55Scorer of big goals.
07:57Looks like he's settled this one.
08:23to break the heart of Cristiano Ronaldo
08:26and the hearts of all the Portuguese fans
08:30Spain look like they've settled this late
08:34the early one-time pass from Rodri
08:39in between the lines here
08:42you see Ferran Torres turn
08:45slides in Marino
08:48Diogo Costa tries his best
08:50to spread himself and get big
08:53just slid through the legs there
08:55easy finish in the end
08:56took a long time coming in
08:59but simply sensational from Spain
09:021-0
09:09Jamal is fouled
09:16you see the young down
09:17importantly to remember in
09:21Roberto Martino
09:22actually put in there now
09:23they can't mess around here
09:26Portugal
09:27can't say Sal
09:29good looking ball in
09:30oh and onto the roof of the net
09:33nearly nearly nearly for Portugal
09:44Bernardo Silva
09:47swapping some barbs with the Spanish player
09:49what a chance this is
09:51and it's the little man Bernardo with the little flick
09:54and he actually just gets too much on it
09:57just needed a little touch
10:00tries to snap it instead
10:02fantastic ball in Portugal
10:05right on the edge of elimination
10:13and that's going to be a free kick
10:15Torres
10:18going to get Yellow Cain pumping a bit too hard I think
10:23but this has to be the last drink
10:26in the saloon
10:27and it's flicked on again
10:30and skids on past the post
10:32and Anthony Taylor blows his whistle
10:35Mikel Merino
10:37magnificent Merino
10:38for Spain
