- 02:28 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Portugal have done it!Portugal have won it at the end. It was Francisco Conceicao who scored very late in the match and heartbreak for Czech Republic. A game dominated by Portugal was ultimately decided by their substitute. What a game!
- 02:17 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Goal disallowedPortugal almost had the winner! Cristiano Ronaldo headed it directly into the post before Diogo Jota capitalised on the rebound and put the ball in the back of the net. However, Ronaldo was offside and the goal is disallowed. Massive moment!
- 02:10 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Chances on both endsThis match is getting very interesting now. Portugal came close to scoring once again with Vitinha's long ranger getting saved. On the other end, Soucek had a good chance to attack the goal and his shot missed the target by a whisker.
- 02:03 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Own goalAn own goal by Robin Hranac and Portugal are 1-1. That was an unfortunate goal to concede as the goalkeeper successfully posted the shot away but it hit the legs of the defender and went inside the goal. Not a good play for Czech Republic.
- 01:54 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: POR stunnedCzech Republic have taken the lead and Lukas Provod has scored almost against the run of the play. It was all Portugal till now but a near perfect counter-attack by Czech Republic resulted in a brilliant goal that can hand Portugal a major loss.
- 01:48 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Ronaldo left frustratedThis has been frustrating for Portugal and especially Cristiano Ronaldo. He got a free-kick at a brilliant position but his shot went directly to the goalkeeper. It is surprising that Portugal have still not found a goal.
- 01:42 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Utter resilienceIf there is one word that can describe Czech Republic perfectly - Resilience. They have defended brilliantly and although Portugal have created a lot of chances, they have found it difficult to find that opening goal.
- 01:38 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Second halfThe second half is underway and it is the same story all over again. Portugal are on the offensive from the first kick and they even came close to creating a good chance. However, still nothing for both sides as score remains 0-0.
- 01:21 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Half-time and it is 0-0It is 0-0 at half-time and it will not be good news for Portugal. While Czech Republic did provide tremendous defensive resilience, Portugal will be looking at their missed chances and hoping that they do not come back to haunt them.
- 01:15 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Lack of penetrationWhile Portugal have created a lot of chances, it has been rare that their attackers were able to get at the end of the final pass. As a result, they did not come very close to scoring the opening goal.
- 01:11 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Yellow card for LeaoYellow card for Rafael Leao after he was found guilty of simulation by the referee. However, Portugal remain in control of this match.

- 00:53 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Sustained pressurePortugal are not allowed Czech Republic to rest for even a minute. Constant attacks with the latest one coming from Ruben Dias whose long range effort was kicked away for a corner. Ronaldo has looked in good touch and Czech Republic will have to think of an idea to neutralise this Portuguese attack.
- 00:47 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: All PortugalIt has been all Portugal in this game till this point. Couple of good attacks already and Portugal are not ahead just because of a bit of shoddy finishing. However, Czech Republic is a side that relies heavily on counter attack and Portugal will have to be wary of that threat.
- 00:39 (IST)Portugal vs Czech Republic LIVE: Early chance for RonaldoAn early chance for Cristiano Ronaldo but the header was just not that great.
