- 02:37 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: Both teams living dangerouslySix minutes into the extra time and already both teams have committed big mistakes. A mispass from Joao Cancelo fell to Slovenia but they were not able to finish it off. Portugal also capitalised on lackluster passing but once again, their finishing was not good enough.
- 02:04 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: More chances and more missesCristiano Ronaldo once again had a free-kick at a good position but the ball sailed over the goal. Minutes later, Bruno Fernandes chased a good cross into the box but was not able to connect with it with his head as Portugal desperately hunt for the goal.
- 02:00 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: No final productIt is not like Slovenia are building chances but the final product is desperately missing for them. Mostly counter-attacks from Slovenia but they have failed to produce a lot of good final passes that can allow their attackers to truly test Diogo Costa.
- 01:51 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: What a move from SeskyTremendous chance for Slovenia and who else but Benjamin Sesko. Portugal were once again caught napping by a counter-attack and although Sesko carried the ball beautifully with his impressive pace, the final shot was not even remotely threatening.

- 01:22 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: 0-0 at half-timeIt is half-time and Portugal will not be happy with the fact that the score is 0-0. The final act of the half was Joao Palhinha's shot hitting the post and that sums up the half perfectly for Portugal. So close yet so far for Cristiano Ronaldo and co.

- 00:56 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: Unbeaten runSlovenia have actually not lost a single game in Euro 2024 till now. While all three of their games were draws, they will take a lot of heart from this statistic as they take on the mighty Portugal. One way traffic at the moment but Slovenia are banking on quick counter attacks to find their footing in this match.
- 00:34 (IST)Portugal vs Slovenia LIVE: Cristiano RonaldoCristiano Ronaldo leads the line for Portugal in their Euro 2024 last 16 clash with Slovenia on Monday in Frankfurt, looking for his first goal of the tournament.

Ronaldo is also one of several Portugal players in danger of suspension for a potential quarter-final if booked, with Joao Palhinha starting and also on a caution.
