GOALLLL! PORTUGAL LEVEL IT
Spain are caught with a lapse of concentration as Ricardo Horta has his first Portugal goal!
Cancelo does brilliantly down the right flank, before cutting the ball back for the substitute inside the area, and Horta stabs it home from close range!

OFFSIDE!
Bruno Fernandes whips in a dangerous ball into the corridor of uncertainty, with the ball awkwardly bouncing just before Unai Simon, but the Spain 'keeper does well to tip the ball clear. The offside flag then goes up.

Pau Torres goes through the back of Guedes and Portugal have a good free-kick opportunity from the left.

Luis Enrique makes his third change as de Tomas comes on for Morata. RDT has had a fine season for Espanyol this term, with 17 goals to his name.

CLOSE FROM MORATA!
Gavi is making a mark on this game yet again. The Barcelona man plays a sublime through ball for Morata in the area, but the striker cannot quite get his dinked finish on target from 15-yards, and it sails wide of the far post.

BIG SAVE!
Leao has another big chance but Simon makes a great save!
Andre Silva does well to hold onto the ball at the edge of the area, before teeing up Leao on the left. The winger avoids Llorente's sliding challenge and goes for goal from close range, but Simon is there to make a crucial stop with his body and Portugal have a corner!

PORTUGAL NEED TO BE CAREFUL!
Bernardo Silva needs to be careful! That could've easily been a second yellow card for the Manchester City man.
Gavi dances around the centre circle and is clipped behind by the Portuguese attacker.

GOOD DEFENDING
Bruno Fernandes picks the ball up in a dangerous area down the right after good work by Andre Silva, but his low cut-back into the box is cut out by Jordi Alba and the ball goes out for a Portugal corner.
