    Portugal deserve all they get really. Relying on Ronaldo to play 120 minutes up top himself. Absolute madness considering the options they have.

    Actually don't think penalties like Ronaldo's should be allowed.

    France were * abysmal. I'd rather Portugal had gone through. France have been * the whole tournament, 5 games, 3 goals with a pen and 2 own goals.

    can I just say I hate the phrase pens is a lottery

    Gutted for Portugal.

    Portuguese people are infinitely sounder than the French.

    Ronaldo is obviously the perennial sausage but France absolutely stink the joint out any time I see them play. A torturous watch.

    Looks like it's Spains tournament. France in the semis and still never scored a goal themselves? :56: must be a record. Absolute dog *.

    Terrified to even take Ronaldo aff, never mind drop him. That’s been a massive hindrance to them in my opinion. He just doesn’t do enough. Which is no surprise given his age to be fair.

    Yeah he dosen't look 100% tbh, France have looked flat, just scraping by, i really hope Spain go on and win it, for me they've been the best and most entertaining team in the competition.

    You can see France visibly hampered by their instructions, when someone like Griezmann isn’t even showing up well you know there’s an issue - the guy was caviar at Celtic Park in the Champions League.

    Ronaldo is finished, Martinez is spineless.

    France * housing their way to another Semi - 3 goals in 5 games. 2 own goals and 1 penalty. Madness.

    Martinez is a coward and Deschamps is mince.

    Quite an achievement that a manager can make a team with so much talent perform like dross almost every game they play.

    Spain have comfortably been the best team so far. But even then, their manager taking off their best attacking players when the game wasn’t over was madness.
