GOALLLL! Ronaldo hammers another goal from penalty and it is back to level terms.

PENALTY! France have awarded a penalty again for a hand bal.

Portugal are not able to move in front, there is a need to change something.

If the scoreline remains this in both the games, then Portugal are out of the contest.

CHANCE! Ronaldo takes a jump and heads it towards goalpost, but it just missed the goalkeeper.

GOALLLL! Karim Benzema has scored... but the joyis shortlived. Benzema is OFF! Just by a mm.

If the scoreline remain the same in both matches, Germany will be eliminated.

France vs Switzerland

It is all levelled at Puskas Arena after two controversial penalty calls! It is Portugal 1-1 France

GOALLL! Benzema equalises with a penalty kick!

PENALTY! Semedo has been booked for a challenge on Mbappe and France have a penalty.

France are searching hard for an equaliser in the dying minutes.

YELLOW! Antoine Griezmann has been booked for dissent. Unnecessary..

CHANCE! Semedo tried to send a cross inside, but he only found France defence line.

CHANCE! Joao Moutinho keeps running, he was taken down, he got and up and tried to run again, before Paul Pogba took the ball back.

CHANCE! Joao Moutinho gets a cross from Semedo and it was begging a header from him.

GOALLLLL! Ronaldo nets it in!

FREEKICK! Moutinho sends it in and Llroris takes down Semedo and that is penalty!

The speed of the match has slowed down as both the teams are comfortable with what they have, looking to hold on. It will be enough.

Nervy defending from France as Portugal break through. This could have been tricky.

CHANCE! Mbappe was opened up by Pogba, and he hammered it straight to Rui Patricio. But this was offisde, even though no flag was up.

CHANCE! A cross inside the box was too high for Ronaldo. He could not go for a header.

GOALLL FOR HUNGARY! Big goal and this could have major complications. At this point, Germany are staring at the exit doors.

CHANCE! Pogba sets Mbappe free with a long pass, but Pobga's pass was slighly overhit.

Griezmann takes down Diogo Jota and what a fantastic challenge that was. One second late and that would have been a straight red card.

Cristiano Ronald was fouled by Paul Pobga, but nothing too serious.

SHOT! Renato Sanches hammers it in the box, but it was saved by the keeper. Nothing came off it.

Pogba sends a long pass for Kimpembe who tries to cross into the box, but nothing came off it.

KICKOFF! The ball is rolling and we are underway....

Cristiano Ronaldo is in the middle as Portugal and France take the center stage for their National Anthems.

Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo has never scored against France.

"We need to be what we have always been, a very combative team which plays with solidarity," Pepe said ahead of the game - a rematch of the Euro 2016 final, which Portugal won 1-0 after extra time.

"After Germany, we were very sad but we've thoroughly analysed our performance and we want to show what we're worth. The last match wasn't good, that's true, but tomorrow we have the chance to prove our doubters wrong and play at our best level."

Portugal have won only one of their last 13 matches against France (D1 L11) - that was the Euro 2016 final, played at the Stade de France.
