:01:04. > :01:13.Welcome to St Etienne as Portugal and Iceland become the last two
:01:14. > :01:24.teams to get their Euro 2016 underway.
:01:25. > :01:27.So, the last two teams to get their Euros under
:01:28. > :01:33.It has been raining again here today, but the sunshine has
:01:34. > :01:40.come out in the early evening, just as it did yesterday in Lyon.
:01:41. > :01:46.So, Portugal, who have actually lost at home to Albania
:01:47. > :01:48.and the Cape Verde Islands in the last two years,
:01:49. > :01:50.are without Ricardo Quaresma, who is injured.
:01:51. > :01:55.Ricardo Carvalho and Pepe are hardly the youngest central defensive
:01:56. > :02:03.On their bench, 18-year-old Renato Sanches, who has just signed
:02:04. > :02:10.for Bayern Munich for a fee which could rise to ?61 million.
:02:11. > :02:15.Cuneyt Cakir, from Turkey, is the referee.
:02:16. > :02:21.Although not without the odd blemish on his record,
:02:22. > :02:30.as Manchester United fans might tell you.
:02:31. > :02:39.The captain on the right, Aron Gunnarsson.
:02:40. > :02:42.Don't forget that Iceland almost qualified for
:02:43. > :02:44.the last World Cup, only losing in the play-off to Croatia.
:02:45. > :02:50.The team plays for clubs scattered across northern Europe.
:02:51. > :02:54.Gudmundsson, Gunnarsson, Sigurdsson play in the English leagues.
:02:55. > :02:56.Of course, strikers Sigthorsson and Bodvarsson play for Nantes
:02:57. > :03:05.Sigthorsson, 20 goals in 39 internationals.
:03:06. > :03:08.At the back, Kari Arnason captained Malmo in a Uefa Champions League
:03:09. > :03:11.match against Real Madrid, where they lost 8-0.
:03:12. > :03:25.And when you come to watch Cristiano Ronaldo play,
:03:26. > :03:28.you are expecting big things to happen tonight.
:03:29. > :03:37.Hopefully he can light up this tournament with a big performance.
:03:38. > :03:44.Iceland, a big occasion for them, can they nullify the threat?
:03:45. > :03:50.and Iceland are introduced the referee blows his whistle
:03:51. > :03:56.to international football at its peak.
:03:57. > :04:04.All in white against Portugal, who are predominantly in red.
:04:05. > :04:06.Ronaldo is immediately knocked off the ball and gets a glare.
:04:07. > :04:11.It was a strong challenge from Aron Gunnarsson,
:04:12. > :04:16.who dispossessed Cristiano Ronaldo and then glared at him.
:04:17. > :04:35.Through to the goalkeeper, Halldorsson, who will be happy
:04:36. > :04:39.Did well, Iceland, getting bodies back
:04:40. > :04:51.Ronaldo running at the opposition, getting a bit of freedom.
:04:52. > :05:14.It's not all about Ronaldo, obviously it's mostly about Ronaldo,
:05:15. > :05:18.but when you look around and see Pepe, Danilo,
:05:19. > :05:21.Joao Moutinho and Joao Mario, they have some other good players.
:05:22. > :05:27.I was particularly impressed when Danilo played
:05:28. > :05:31.He looks like another one that has come off the Portuguese
:05:32. > :05:36.I'm sure he will be looking to secure a move at some stage,
:05:37. > :05:42.Inside to Joao Moutinho, away to Pepe.
:05:43. > :05:45.That is a good ball from Mario into the box, but straight
:05:46. > :05:50.into the comfortable grasp of Hannes Halldorsson.
:05:51. > :05:57.Fernando Santos in charge of Portugal.
:05:58. > :05:59.We talk about Iceland being debutants, and they are.
:06:00. > :06:05.There on the right, Heimir Hallgrimsson,
:06:06. > :06:07.but the very familiar Lars Lagerback,
:06:08. > :06:09.this is his seventh major tournament final.
:06:10. > :06:13.Six with Sweden and one with Nigeria.
:06:14. > :06:15.He is no debutant, he's been around the block.
:06:16. > :06:22.Gylfi Sigurdsson cuts inside, Sigurdsson!
:06:23. > :06:31.That was nearly the story of the first week in the Euros
:06:32. > :06:36.Excellent work down the left-hand side.
:06:37. > :06:50.He has to clean the ball out, put it in the stand if necessary.
:06:51. > :06:53.If you are Iceland you want Sigurdsson with those big chances.
:06:54. > :07:20.As he steps inside, Danilo, you expect him to bend it
:07:21. > :07:23.beyond Patricio in goal, past his left hand side,
:07:24. > :07:27.He went for power and it was a comfortable save in the end.
:07:28. > :07:30.Trying to give him the eyes, trying to go near post.
:07:31. > :07:39.Eidur Gudjohnsen in the middle of your shot there.
:07:40. > :07:44.Still going, 37 years young, Eidur Gudjohnsen.
:07:45. > :07:46.He will retire from international football for the second time
:07:47. > :08:06.The free kick does go Portugal's way.
:08:07. > :08:11.Nani is edging towards 100 caps, after tonight, 97 for Nani.
:08:12. > :08:20.Another one who has the talent but hasn't always consistent enough.
:08:21. > :08:29.Pepe has come forward, so has Ricardo Carvalho.
:08:30. > :08:42.He has had two or three good touches.
:08:43. > :08:48.Not the greatest free kick from Joao Moutinho.
:08:49. > :09:04.Been caught out a few times in possession, Iceland.
:09:05. > :09:10.A lot of experience in Iceland's back four.
:09:11. > :09:21.Three of the back four started every game in qualification.
:09:22. > :09:29.Flicked on, deflected, another corner.
:09:30. > :09:44.Danilo just trying to get the direction on it,
:09:45. > :09:46.not able to get the power coming away from goal.
:09:47. > :09:48.Joao Moutinho with the second corner.
:09:49. > :10:05.the referee having a word with Aron Gunnarsson.
:10:06. > :10:07.The temptation is to see Iceland as rank outsiders
:10:08. > :10:11.and total underdogs, but they came into this
:10:12. > :10:13.tournament coming second in the qualification group,
:10:14. > :10:19.Three teams from that group made the finals, because Turkey
:10:20. > :10:20.came through a play-off, and the Netherlands
:10:21. > :10:30.Just missed out on the last World Cup to an excellent Croatian
:10:31. > :10:38.It has been a work in progress in the last ten years.
:10:39. > :10:50.The blue-shirted hordes from Iceland reacted rather late
:10:51. > :10:55.It was a long time up before they realised it.
:10:56. > :11:22.Bjarnason arrives on the scene, the decision has gone Portugal's way.
:11:23. > :11:26.He will stand down at the end of this tournament.
:11:27. > :11:31.And the man alongside, Heimir Hallgrimsson,
:11:32. > :11:41.We talked about Iceland having a population the size of Leicester,
:11:42. > :11:51.I did put a call into the Icelandic Embassy this morning
:11:52. > :11:54.to ask how many Icelandic men that are between the age of 20-40
:11:55. > :11:57.who could conceivably be picked for the squad.
:11:58. > :12:02.That means if you are an Icelandic man in that age group you have
:12:03. > :12:08.a one in 2000 chance of being in the squad.
:12:09. > :12:11.For someone whose name ends in -son, I'm a bit disappointed
:12:12. > :12:31.That was a poor ball from Sigurdsson from the back.
:12:32. > :13:07.Joao Moutinho loves the feel of the ball at his feet.
:13:08. > :13:30.Guerreiro with the throw-in for Portugal.
:13:31. > :13:40.Gudmundsson inside to Gylfi Sigurdsson.
:13:41. > :13:41.Danilo immediately in on Gylfi Sigurdsson.
:13:42. > :13:54.That is exactly what he does, that is why he plays in the side.
:13:55. > :13:56.Allows the likes of Moutinho and Mario ahead of him
:13:57. > :14:25.Ten minutes in and the best chance was for Iceland.
:14:26. > :14:30.They have not been great in possession, Iceland,
:14:31. > :14:36.when they have had it, a few overhit passes.
:14:37. > :14:39.But when you get those chances, those big chances, those big
:14:40. > :14:41.moments, you want them to fall to Sigurdsson
:14:42. > :14:44.and you expect him to do better with the chance he had.
:14:45. > :15:21.Danilo, to the feet of Joao Moutinho.
:15:22. > :15:26.Bjarnason made the challenge and the referee saw
:15:27. > :15:48.Referee said he won the ball and not sure there was much contact.
:15:49. > :16:20.Skulason will take the throw-in.
:16:21. > :16:47.Hand raised, as soon he released the ball he knew
:16:48. > :17:20.In a good position, the full-back, but the referee has
:17:21. > :17:33.You want the game to flow, in a good position going forward.
:17:34. > :17:35.Awareness from Moutinho to spot the run.
:17:36. > :18:20.A good-looking ball, just didn't quite find Joao Mario.
:18:21. > :18:56.Just a bit scrappy at the moment, isn't it?
:18:57. > :19:04.They're not able to string a few passes together.
:19:05. > :19:13.Carvalho, the ageing Portuguese defender, now at Monaco.
:19:14. > :19:36.Danilo. Vierinha.
:19:37. > :19:54.We have seen that challenge from Ricardo Carvalho a lot.
:19:55. > :19:56.He knows what he is doing, just leaving his foot
:19:57. > :20:57.Keeping a very good shape, Iceland.
:20:58. > :21:12.The goalkeeper just wanted a second look at that.
:21:13. > :21:20.Just a very good attacking full-back, Vieirinha.
:21:21. > :21:22.Strikes it well enough, just did not have the direction.
:21:23. > :22:02.He is a little bit off-balance, although he struck it well enough.
:22:03. > :22:34.Gylfi Sigurdsson is down at the moment for Iceland.
:22:35. > :22:41.Portugal are about to put the ball out of play.
:22:42. > :22:43.Ronaldo gave it to Gudmundsson so that he could do so.
:22:44. > :22:54.The referee is coming over to have a look at Sigurdsson.
:22:55. > :23:04.He has just trodden on the top of his left foot.
:23:05. > :23:22.One of the most historic stadiums in France, home to Saint-Etienne,
:23:23. > :23:36.of course, who had that great team in the 1970s,
:23:37. > :23:39.with Jacques Santini, who managed Spurs, who is here today.
:23:40. > :23:48.As is the star of the team which reached the European
:23:49. > :23:49.Cup Final in 1976, Dominique Rocheteau.
:23:50. > :23:57.Danilo for Portugal, who have not really troubled Halldorsson yet -
:23:58. > :24:04.certainly not with anything which would unduly worry him.
:24:05. > :24:11.That was a brilliant ball in from Ronaldo,
:24:12. > :24:12.and Nani's header hit the goalkeeper.
:24:13. > :24:21.Shifting it onto his right foot, great ball in.
:24:22. > :24:30.It is actually a really good save from Halldorsson,
:24:31. > :25:05.Provided a bit of room, actually and Nani's header
:25:06. > :25:08.will loop over the top of Halldorsson's crossbar.
:25:09. > :25:11.It was the way Ronaldo got the cross in, the change of feet,
:25:12. > :25:28.Good movement from Nani to recognise it.
:25:29. > :25:30.And that is a really, really good save.
:25:31. > :25:31.Getting across his line, Halldorsson.
:25:32. > :25:55.Iceland couldn't really profit from that.
:25:56. > :26:02.Gomes now for Portugal with a powerful surge.
:26:03. > :26:20.Pulling away onto the shoulder of the defender, getting across him,
:26:21. > :26:26.just couldn't quite get the direction.
:26:27. > :26:36.If he has a good tournament, Ronaldo, he could become the
:26:37. > :26:40.highest-scoring player of all time in European Championship finals.
:26:41. > :26:44.Michel Platini, on nine, Alan Shearer on seven.
:26:45. > :27:01.Ronaldo currently on six in his three previous tournaments.
:27:02. > :27:07.As you said earlier, Kevin, you can throw any figure
:27:08. > :27:10.in the air and you'll find an achievement that matches him.
:27:11. > :27:17.More than 50 goals again, just amazing.
:27:18. > :27:41.Six seasons running now, 50 goals plus.
:27:42. > :27:48.Iceland will be quite happy with the way it has gone.
:27:49. > :28:10.Gudmundsson felt that, and has got the free kick.
:28:11. > :28:17.Someone needs to wake up, because Bjarnason is there.
:28:18. > :28:19.Pepe goes to ground and gets the free kick,
:28:20. > :28:31.but there was certainly hesitation there.
:28:32. > :28:33.When you let it bounce you are under pressure.
:28:34. > :28:38.We know, they are uncomfortable at times, Pepe and Carvalho.
:28:39. > :28:40.Alan Shearer spoke about set pieces for Iceland,
:28:41. > :28:45.The quality hasn't always been great in this first half up to now.
:28:46. > :28:52.Patted away by goalkeeper Halldorsson.
:28:53. > :28:53.Lovely ball from Pepe towards Ronaldo,
:28:54. > :29:11.Well, you have got to compete, but the referee
:29:12. > :29:16.What a chance that was, brilliant ball from Pepe.
:29:17. > :29:20.Almost like the goal for Italy last night, the same movement.
:29:21. > :29:38.Here comes the free kick for that Bjarnason challenge.
:29:39. > :29:43.Halldorsson again with a comfortable take.
:29:44. > :29:53.That has happened two or three times now.
:29:54. > :30:21.Free kick given in his favour this time.
:30:22. > :30:25.Danilo, that is asking rather a lot of Nani.
:30:26. > :31:04.Just that final ball at the moment, Kevin, for Portugal,
:31:05. > :31:14.No, it's not, apart from that ball from Pepe to set up Ronaldo.
:31:15. > :31:22.Great movement from Ronaldo, and he has got to be scoring.
:31:23. > :31:52.Gomes could not make the most of that error.
:31:53. > :31:55.Joao Mario was beaten, but Ricardo Carvalho wasn't.
:31:56. > :32:36.38 now, but brilliantly-timed challenge.
:32:37. > :32:38.Joao Mario, that was a very good ball.
:32:39. > :32:43.It was just a little bit too high for Joao Moutinho.
:32:44. > :32:54.Bodies behind him as well - he knew he had to deal with it.
:32:55. > :33:08.That looked to me like it had gone out of play.
:33:09. > :33:12.You can see the set-up from Iceland every time -
:33:13. > :33:17.allow Portugal to get over the halfway line, then put them
:33:18. > :33:29.under more pressure, going into a rigid 4-4-2.
:33:30. > :34:13.That's good reading for Iceland, 0-0 after half an hour.
:34:14. > :34:18.I still think Gylfi Sigurdsson's chance was every bit as good
:34:19. > :34:38.Switch off for a second and Portugal make you pay.
:34:39. > :34:45.Nani with the goal, Gomes with a pass.
:34:46. > :35:07.A great bonus from Andre Gomes, when he gets in he gets his head up.
:35:08. > :35:12.A brilliant run from Nani near post and it's a simple task at the end
:35:13. > :35:18.But I have to say, it has been coming.
:35:19. > :35:21.They've been a bit slack in possession, Iceland.
:35:22. > :35:53.Sigurdsson had that early chance in the third minute to put the cat
:35:54. > :35:55.amongst the Portuguese pigeons but didn't take it.
:35:56. > :36:20.When you get those big moments, you have to take them.
:36:21. > :36:45.A great ball, Joao Moutinho hasn't always produced with free kicks
:36:46. > :36:48.in wide areas in this game but that was a super ball.
:36:49. > :37:07.Another corner, didn't quite reach Ricardo Carvalho.
:37:08. > :37:21.Got to try and see this spell through at the moment, Iceland.
:37:22. > :37:25.They are struggling and need to get out of their own half.
:37:26. > :37:28.If Portugal get a second in the next couple of minutes, you wouldn't
:37:29. > :37:33.It just has that feel at the moment a third before half-time.
:37:34. > :37:36.that this is an important 10-12 minutes up to half-time for Iceland.
:37:37. > :38:07.with his fingertips rather than his palms, but it stuck.
:38:08. > :38:10.Nani knocked over by Gylfi Sigurdsson.
:38:11. > :38:21.It's interesting, I saw some very good stuff in the paper
:38:22. > :38:32.the long-standing international Icelandic player.
:38:33. > :38:36.He said when he moved to England he was 23, but in mental terms
:38:37. > :38:38.he was still like a teenager because the Icelandic
:38:39. > :39:03.system was so far behind, and that is no longer the case.
:39:04. > :39:17.A lovely turn away from Gylfi Sigurdsson.
:39:18. > :39:18.Joao Mario has gone down for Portugal.
:39:19. > :39:23.Bjarnason here charging forward for Iceland,
:39:24. > :39:25.trying to curl it off the outside of his boot around Pepe.
:39:26. > :39:58.It almost fell for Gudmundsson at the back post.
:39:59. > :40:09.It is a better ball from back to front.
:40:10. > :40:11.Just a little floater, to give them a chance
:40:12. > :40:18.But a vital touch at the far post to deny a good chance for Iceland.
:40:19. > :40:25.A few hoots from behind the goal from the Icelandic fans,
:40:26. > :40:31.thinking they might have a penalty shout.
:40:32. > :40:33.Not a good set play from Iceland again.
:40:34. > :40:46.Aron Gunnarsson to take this for Iceland.
:40:47. > :40:58.The Portuguese right-back said it didn't come off him,
:40:59. > :41:00.but the Turkish referee says, yes it did.
:41:01. > :41:09.Hardly a long throw, but certainly made the most of it.
:41:10. > :41:14.Gylfi Sigurdsson to take this for Iceland.
:41:15. > :41:16.A goal down but on the front foot again now.
:41:17. > :41:24.Now Gudmundsson, caught in possession by Joao Mario,
:41:25. > :42:08.Just taking an opportunity to have a word with Aron Gunnarsson.
:42:09. > :42:16.Pepe has charged forward from the back.
:42:17. > :42:21.Joao Mario for Portugal, back to Nani.
:42:22. > :42:25.Well taken, Halldorsson did well and delivers it quickly.
:42:26. > :42:28.Pepe is not going to get back as quickly as he got
:42:29. > :43:32.Nani seems to have decided to hold the right touchline at the moment.
:43:33. > :44:02.Good ball, Andre Gomes feigning to shoot with his right.
:44:03. > :44:04.Halldorsson would have seen that quite late, Arnason
:44:05. > :44:12.Make it hard to find any space for Portugal.
:44:13. > :44:28.Joao Mario and Danilo for Portugal enjoying
:44:29. > :44:57.Ricardo Carvalho, one of the players, like Cristiano Ronaldo
:44:58. > :45:00.who will have memories of being beaten by underdogs
:45:01. > :45:06.Losing the opening game of Euro 2004 to Greece
:45:07. > :45:12.and then again in the final, on home turf.
:45:13. > :45:14.Wise enough and experienced enough to know
:45:15. > :45:28.not to take anything for granted.
:45:29. > :45:30.They will be happy going in at half-time if it stays
:45:31. > :45:36.a big chance early on, little going forward,
:45:37. > :45:39.but you expect better from them from set plays.
:45:40. > :45:44.They haven't provided any telling balls into the area.
:45:45. > :46:19.Nice jinking run, but blocked in the end, a Portuguese throw.
:46:20. > :46:27.Taken away from Nani by the flying figure of Saevarsson.
:46:28. > :46:48.Got to try and see this spell through,
:46:49. > :46:54.There has to come a time in the game when they will throw bodies forward.
:46:55. > :47:00.Vieirinha, a good ball, but too high for Cristiano Ronaldo,
:47:01. > :47:08.who had Sigurdsson jumping just in front of him.
:47:09. > :47:11.He has picked up a couple of good positions, Cristiano Ronaldo,
:47:12. > :47:18.Just can't quite get it on target again.
:47:19. > :47:22.That was the chance, excellent awareness from Nani,
:47:23. > :48:01.He's going to have a word with Danilo.
:48:02. > :48:07.Who presumably had something to say for himself.
:48:08. > :48:19.Might have a chance here to try and get something right at the end
:48:20. > :48:40.This throw from Aron Gunnarsson will be launched in, I expect.
:48:41. > :49:00.Nani taken out, and the referee has decided that that will do
:49:01. > :49:15.There has been a few of those throughout this first half.
:49:16. > :49:20.Great early chance, though, for Gylfi Sigurdsson,
:49:21. > :49:26.which would have been a dream start for Iceland.
:49:27. > :49:28.But in the end, Nani getting the goal after some
:49:29. > :49:58.At half-time, it is Portugal 1-0 Iceland.
:49:59. > :50:08.10-macro to Portugal and Nani, the goal-scorer.
:50:09. > :50:13.but sometimes the Portuguese, they leave you wanting more.
:50:14. > :50:17.Difficult to play through the Icelandic side, we know that.
:50:18. > :50:20.But I think there is a lot more to come.
:50:21. > :50:22.As the tournament progresses that is when the likes of Ronaldo
:50:23. > :50:25.step up to the plate and put in big performances in big games.
:50:26. > :50:27.It has been a low-key start for them.
:50:28. > :50:30.Portugal from left to right in the second half, no substitutions
:50:31. > :50:42.No yellow cards in the game either, and just the one chance for Iceland,
:50:43. > :50:47.but it was that big one early on the Gylfi Sigurdsson.
:50:48. > :50:50.A chance we have become accustomed to see him take.
:50:51. > :50:54.I think that was the disappointing thing in the first half for Iceland,
:50:55. > :50:56.how disappointing they were from set plays.
:50:57. > :51:00.It might be a set play that gets them into this game,
:51:01. > :51:24.Joao Mario has ghosted forward on the edge of the penalty area.
:51:25. > :51:31.Looking to see where Ronaldo is, there he is.
:51:32. > :51:39.Sigurdsson got in the way, the defensive Sigurdsson,
:51:40. > :51:52.Even on his left foot, comfortable and confident enough
:51:53. > :52:05.Didn't have a lot to talk about at half-time, fairly quiet,
:52:06. > :52:09.But he had a few big moments in the first half,
:52:10. > :52:27.Saevarsson forward for Iceland, towards Jon Dadi Bodvarsson.
:52:28. > :53:09.Guerreiro, a good little run that, it has resulted in a corner.
:53:10. > :53:12.It probably shouldn't have done, Halldorsson was a bit slow to react.
:53:13. > :53:18.He could have freed the wide man up, Guerreiro.
:53:19. > :53:39.That was poor, poor goalkeeping at the end.
:53:40. > :53:54.Not exactly sure what Vieirinha thought he was doing with that.
:53:55. > :53:57.Group F started with a surprise earlier today, with Austria,
:53:58. > :54:01.many people's fancy to maybe overachieve in this tournament,
:54:02. > :54:13.Hungary are Iceland's next opponents.
:54:14. > :54:29.Off the grateful heel of Aron Gunnarsson.
:54:30. > :54:50.He has been impressive, Andre Gomes, looking to get forward.
:54:51. > :54:52.It was a foul, a clear block from Saevarsson.
:54:53. > :55:07.The referee in a really good position there, as well.
:55:08. > :55:09.Bjarnason in the middle, Sigthorsson as well.
:55:10. > :55:13.The cross coming in from Gudmundsson.
:55:14. > :55:14.Terrible defending, Bjarnason with the finish!
:55:15. > :55:38.Absolute bedlam among the Icelandic supporters.
:55:39. > :55:48.Bjarnason comes in well and finishes it.
:55:49. > :55:56.Gets himself in all sorts of trouble, he doesn't need to.
:55:57. > :56:02.First off they missed a big chance, but Bjarnason comes in.
:56:03. > :56:09.Such bad defending from Portugal, really bad goal to concede.
:56:10. > :56:16.But brilliant moment for the Icelandic fans.
:56:17. > :56:20.Into the history books for Bjarnason.
:56:21. > :56:30.Two goals in ten games in qualifying for these finals and has just tucked
:56:31. > :56:38.away their first-ever goal in a tournament final.
:56:39. > :57:00.He will be absolutely pumped after that.
:57:01. > :57:03.He has just won the Swiss title, so he's having a good
:57:04. > :57:32.Gunnarson with this throw, flicked
:57:33. > :57:58.Very little possession for Iceland in this game,
:57:59. > :58:01.not really able to get any momentum going forward.
:58:02. > :58:32.Guerreiro to take this corner kick for the Portuguese,
:58:33. > :58:58.Joao Moutinho wanted to take it quickly, but no one
:58:59. > :59:11.The goal for Iceland has put a bit of extra pace in Portugal's play.
:59:12. > :59:14.As I say that, Carvalho puts it out of play.
:59:15. > :59:19.A bit more urgency from Moutinho, Ronaldo and Nani.
:59:20. > :59:26.Looking for it to be a lot brighter in the final third.
:59:27. > :59:32.Move the ball quickly, try and take the Icelandic players
:59:33. > :59:49.And the first yellow card of the game comes out
:59:50. > :00:08.Could be another yellow card in front of us,
:00:09. > :00:13.More than a touch on the late side.
:00:14. > :00:31.He doesn't need to make the challenge.
:00:32. > :00:42.But allows Iceland to kill the game, set the play up, condense it.
:00:43. > :00:47.Long ball forward, that's how they've played this game.
:00:48. > :01:31.Tempted to do the words from the old song...
:01:32. > :01:34."Fools to the left of me, jokers to the right,
:01:35. > :01:43.He must feel like that a lot of the time.
:01:44. > :01:47.He is better than a lot of the players around him.
:01:48. > :01:50.But his record over the last seven or eight years at international
:01:51. > :01:55.Aron Gunnarsson, whose brother is an Icelandic handball champion.
:01:56. > :02:06.A nice double for the Gunnarson family.
:02:07. > :02:16.Four flying at the Icelandic penalty area.
:02:17. > :02:23.Andre Gomes to his left hand side, don't think it crossed his mind
:02:24. > :02:29.A lovely break, lovely touch from Ronaldo to set Joao Mario away.
:02:30. > :03:20.Gudmundsson was not mucking about there.
:03:21. > :03:22.Wouldn't be so happy if it finishes 1-1.
:03:23. > :03:31.It is getting a little more physical.
:03:32. > :03:48.A really good ball in the first half played by Guerreiro,
:03:49. > :04:00.Four in the middle for Portugal, everybody back for Iceland.
:04:01. > :04:02.Looking a little penned in at this moment.
:04:03. > :04:10.Very good header clear, defensive header clear by Kari Arnason.
:04:11. > :04:28.A bit of movement ahead of him from Sigthorsson.
:04:29. > :04:37.The full-back Vieirinha has to do better, he has to adjust his body
:04:38. > :04:47.Given away to Gylfi Sigurdsson, just couldn't take it in his stride.
:04:48. > :05:14.The goalkeeper somehow got it around the post.
:05:15. > :06:20.For all their physicality, Iceland, they have not conceded one
:06:21. > :06:31.That obviously would have been one of their priorities.
:06:32. > :06:38.I think they have defended dead balls very well.
:06:39. > :06:44.It is their own quality which has been lacking at times.
:06:45. > :07:15.Pepe, that is going to reach Joao Mario.
:07:16. > :07:21.They have got to have some white shirts up the field at some point,
:07:22. > :07:24.They can't keep just giving it back to Portugal,
:07:25. > :07:46.That is a long time to sit around your penalty area.
:07:47. > :08:00.That ended up in the gloves of the Icelandic goalkeeper.
:08:01. > :08:05.It is a good ball from Vieirinha, slight deflection on it.
:08:06. > :08:17.Has not always been great with his deliveries from wide areas.
:08:18. > :08:34.Nani has made a good run, and that is well
:08:35. > :08:42.That has been taken extremely quickly by Joao Mario.
:08:43. > :08:46.There's urgency from Cristiano Ronaldo, who is looking
:08:47. > :09:07.Fernando Santos, the Portuguese coach,
:09:08. > :09:21.Portugal's quality has let them down at times.
:09:22. > :09:39.Arnason working really hard to get there first.
:09:40. > :09:58.The Portuguese full-back Vieirinha is not having the best of times
:09:59. > :10:03.No, with Cedric Soares sitting on the bench, he will be thinking,
:10:04. > :10:29.Vieirinha with this throw for Portugal.
:10:30. > :10:59.Substitutes warming up all over the place
:11:00. > :11:18.Ronaldo was a little bit on his heels there.
:11:19. > :11:23.The white shirts just struggling to find a way out at the moment.
:11:24. > :11:26.They just cannot keep hold of the ball.
:11:27. > :11:53.As I said at the start, Portugal are not immune to embarrassment.
:11:54. > :11:59.Albania won in Portugal in qualifying.
:12:00. > :12:16.Cape Verde also beat them in a friendly.
:12:17. > :12:19.I do not mean that disrespectfully to Iceland, to suggest it
:12:20. > :12:22.would be embarrassing for them to beat Portugal,
:12:23. > :12:25.because they are a very good side, but it would
:12:26. > :12:42.And Pepe has knocked down Bodvarsson, and I think he knew
:12:43. > :13:03.He has had a little kick out as well, Pepe on the floor.
:13:04. > :13:05.I wonder what Cuneyt Cakir will make of this.
:13:06. > :13:08.It is a foul from Bodvarsson, but just when he goes down...
:13:09. > :13:29.The legs come up and there's absolutely no need for that.
:13:30. > :13:31.Coming on shortly for Portugal will be Renato Sanches.
:13:32. > :13:34.Bayern Munich got in quickly to sign him from Benfica this summer
:13:35. > :14:39.That was easy, really, for Saevarsson.
:14:40. > :14:46.It is following the same pattern, Steve, isn't it?
:14:47. > :14:56.Attack after attack, but just breaking down.
:14:57. > :14:58.Nani - the referee's whistle has gone for the earlier
:14:59. > :15:18.Here is the change, and Moutinho is coming off for Portugal.
:15:19. > :15:20.On comes Renato Sanches, who is joining Bayern Munich
:15:21. > :15:24.from Benfica, costing them ?27 million, rising
:15:25. > :15:33.The youngest Portuguese player ever to be kicked for a major tournament,
:15:34. > :15:48.beating the record set by Cristiano Ronaldo.
:15:49. > :16:17.Six inches wide, I would say - no more than that.
:16:18. > :16:24.Iceland free kick - that's good news for them,
:16:25. > :16:50.just gives them the chance to settle themselves down.
:16:51. > :17:00.Sigthorsson coming back from an of side position.
:17:01. > :17:06.Sigthorsson coming back from an offside position.
:17:07. > :17:34.Gylfi Sigurdsson was very keen to ask the question.
:17:35. > :17:39.Ronaldo - plenty of power, but rising too much.
:17:40. > :17:44.Sigurdsson is still asking the question of the referee.
:17:45. > :18:02.20 years ago, Eidur Gudjohnsen on the Icelandic bench came
:18:03. > :18:58.And the player who went off was his dad.
:18:59. > :19:08.Dangerous leave, right across the face of Patricio's goal.
:19:09. > :19:10.Dangerous, right across the face of Patricio's goal.
:19:11. > :19:17.Really good delivery from the throw and towards Bodvarsson.
:19:18. > :19:34.That is where they will get their chances.
:19:35. > :19:36.Long ball back wins the initial throw in.
:19:37. > :19:57.Renato Sanches with the clearance downfield.
:19:58. > :20:06.Quaresma will be on shortly for Portugal, their second change.
:20:07. > :20:20.Goalkick to Iceland, and Portugal take off Joao Mario.
:20:21. > :20:28.They bring on Ricardo Quaresma, who is 32 now.
:20:29. > :20:50.Left out of the World Cup squad two years later.
:20:51. > :20:59.Went to Euro 2012, but sat on the bench the whole tournament.
:21:00. > :21:02.He has been around a long time but only his third ever appearance
:21:03. > :21:05.Positive substitution, they needed to change things up.
:21:06. > :21:08.Quaresma probably wasn't quite fit to start the game.
:21:09. > :21:09.An unpredictable player, a real talent.
:21:10. > :21:12.A poor header from Pepe, it really was.
:21:13. > :21:15.Towards Bodvarsson, and Pepe makes amends.
:21:16. > :21:41.He knew if he headed it clear, Cristiano Ronaldo was lurking.
:21:42. > :21:44.It is fair to say that I think those in blue are enjoying it
:21:45. > :22:02.rather more than those in red at the moment.
:22:03. > :22:04.It sounds like the Icelandic fans are singing,
:22:05. > :22:14."Come On You Spurs" but I'm sure they're not!
:22:15. > :22:25.Gomes to his left, Nani in the middle and Ronaldo as well,
:22:26. > :22:31.Came to Gomes rather fortunately.
:22:32. > :22:45.That's what they want to do, Portugal,
:22:46. > :23:00.get Quaresma into the game as quickly as possible.
:23:01. > :23:16.It takes a lot to get them sticking together through those difficult
:23:17. > :23:20.times, to get big results in big tournaments.
:23:21. > :23:29.Iceland are going to make a substitution
:23:30. > :23:37.They are defending first, with this corner kick
:23:38. > :24:20.Halldorsson in the Icelandic goal hasn't had to do anything brilliant
:24:21. > :24:22.to keep Portugal out since they equalised.
:24:23. > :24:36.Good bit of control from Aron Gunnarsson.
:24:37. > :24:44.They can't get out but they are content to sit in, and sit deep.
:24:45. > :24:49.They clear and then get back into shape for the next attack.
:24:50. > :24:57.We might see Iceland make that change now.
:24:58. > :25:06.This was the deflected shot from Quaresma
:25:07. > :25:27.He read it well, the goalkicker part had to get himself into position.
:25:28. > :25:32.Alfred Finnbogason is the man coming on.
:25:33. > :25:34.Finnbogason scored against Arsenal in the Champions League
:25:35. > :25:38.this season when he was on loan from Real Sociedad to Olympiakos.
:25:39. > :25:43.Finished the season on loan in Germany.
:25:44. > :25:56.I'm not saying the referee was going to give it
:25:57. > :25:59.I'm not saying the referee wasn't going to give it
:26:00. > :26:04.When he senses the Portuguese players breaking,
:26:05. > :26:19.just clips the heels or drags the shirt back.
:26:20. > :26:21.First time we've seen the familiar statuesque stance
:26:22. > :26:22.of Cristiano Ronaldo over a free kick.
:26:23. > :26:25.Whipped in and deflected over the top by Gunnarson.
:26:26. > :26:36.One day I'm pretty certain there will be a statue
:26:37. > :26:43.Who knows? There might be one already in Madeira!
:26:44. > :26:53.A better ball, a better delivery from Quaresma.
:26:54. > :26:55.Good movement from Pepe across the near post.
:26:56. > :27:15.Not so sure it would have gone in anyhow, but had to deal with it.
:27:16. > :27:21.The question is, can Iceland keep them out?
:27:22. > :27:25.It is very hard to imagine Iceland scoring again
:27:26. > :27:36.You said it before about Halldorsson in goal -
:27:37. > :27:43.he hasn't had much to do, not tested enough by Portugal.
:27:44. > :27:45.The guys in front of him have been excellent.
:27:46. > :28:00.They have been very well organised, disciplined as well.
:28:01. > :28:06.Again, Aron Gunnarsson with another interception.
:28:07. > :28:09.Not even looking to make passes, just clearances.
:28:10. > :28:14.Keep yourself set up, offer to throw any bodies forward.
:28:15. > :28:19.Swansea's player, Eder, about to come on.
:28:20. > :28:27.He has been on loan to Lyon here in France.
:28:28. > :28:49.Pepe has dealt with Finnbogason and it is a goalkick to Portugal.
:28:50. > :28:56.I think he recognised he made a poor decision,
:28:57. > :29:00.He wanted to get the strike away early.
:29:01. > :29:06.Andre Gomes comes off, Eder comes on.
:29:07. > :29:09.Didn't score in his 15 games for Swansea.
:29:10. > :29:13.Did better when he went on loan,
:29:14. > :29:21.the French club taking up their option.
:29:22. > :30:02.No wonder he is puffing his cheeks out.
:30:03. > :30:05.The best chance of the half, brilliant from Nani.
:30:06. > :30:07.Ronaldo pulling away to get between the right-back
:30:08. > :30:19.Gets a good look at the goal, straight at Halldorsson.
:30:20. > :30:22.You think Ronaldo in that position, so good in the air,
:30:23. > :30:58.I did say a couple of minutes ago that I couldn't see Iceland scoring.
:30:59. > :31:05.They can get two or three bodies around Finnbogason.
:31:06. > :31:17.Straight at Patricio in the end though.
:31:18. > :31:20.Sanches, good feet, really good feet,
:31:21. > :31:30.You have said that a lot, Gunnarson.
:31:31. > :31:59.No problem at all for Halldorsson in the Icelandic goal.
:32:00. > :32:01.This was a chance, good feet from Finnbogason.
:32:02. > :32:14.Lucky in the end, comes straight at him.
:32:15. > :32:23.Had a spell in Holland, Finnbogason, when he scored 53 in 45 games.
:32:24. > :32:26.Had a spell in Holland, Finnbogason, when he scored 53 in 65 games.
:32:27. > :32:28.Sometimes difficult to judge strikers in Dutch football.
:32:29. > :32:30.You don't know if you're getting a Ruud van Nistelrooy
:32:31. > :32:47.There are a lot of goals in Dutch football.
:32:48. > :32:50.If you don't remember Marco, ask a West Ham fan.
:32:51. > :33:04.It's a familiar tale, really, from Portugal in tournaments.
:33:05. > :33:31.Guerreiro may be with a better angle.
:33:32. > :33:36.I was going to say if it would be in.
:33:37. > :33:53.Dealt with any of the threats coming in from wide.
:33:54. > :33:55.130 games at Rotherham, Kari Arnason.
:33:56. > :34:07.Not sure if it prepared him for defending against Ronaldo.
:34:08. > :34:17.Everyone knows he has it in him but a wonderful leap
:34:18. > :34:25.from practically a standing start and caught Halldorsson by surprise.
:34:26. > :34:31.The jump is so good, his head is higher than
:34:32. > :34:48.This is designed to just eat up a few seconds.
:34:49. > :35:04.Played one game for the club in 2007,
:35:05. > :35:07.so if you are a Celtic fan and don't remember him,
:35:08. > :35:59.It is now just a matter of seconds for them to hold out.
:36:00. > :36:40.About 90 seconds of added time to play.
:36:41. > :36:59.That's how close Iceland are to an historic result.
:37:00. > :37:03.In comes the free kick - and out it goes.
:37:04. > :37:17.I think the ball had gone behind first.
:37:18. > :37:35.He has got away with it, the goalkeeper.
:37:36. > :38:13.That is Gylfi Sigurdsson, but he has put it into the path of Nani.
:38:14. > :38:22.Is it a little bit too far out for Ronaldo?
:38:23. > :38:31.Slightly to the right of his earlier one.
:38:32. > :38:40.You know what? If anybody can, he can.
:38:41. > :38:55.The three minutes have been played so that it is now
:38:56. > :39:00.all about Cristiano Ronaldo, Halldorsson and his wall.
:39:01. > :39:08.Another free kick a few yards nearer.
:39:09. > :39:22.This is really a big problem now, because this is Ronaldo country.
:39:23. > :39:27.Is it his moment to light up the tournament?
:39:28. > :39:55.This could be the last kick of the game.
:39:56. > :39:58.The wall did its job again, and the whistle has gone!
:39:59. > :40:06.And Iceland have a point against Portugal.
:40:07. > :40:09.They have put in an enormous shift against a not very inspired
:40:10. > :40:33.And Arnason is the man with his name written large
:40:34. > :41:09.You will each collect a Michelin-starred chef.
:41:10. > :41:13.'En route, each chef will prepare a dish.'
