FT: Portugal 2-0 Uruguay! All over in Qatar and Portugal are through to the last 16! B Fernandes made it 1-0 in the 54th minute, Uruguay had chances to level and hit the post before Fernandes made it two after an absolutely farcical penalty decision. Uruguay need to beat Ghana and hope S Korea don't beat Portugal. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
99'
B Fernandes strikes the post from the edge of the box!
97'
Portugal have their place assured now in the last 16.
93'
Goal difference could play a huge part in this group and the Iranian ref and Qatari VAR have just ended their tournaments. Awful by the officials.
B Fernandes steps up and scores! He sends the GK the wrong way. Nine added minutes, by the way.
91'
Penalty to Portugal!! Uruguay are understandably furious as if the arm is going to ground, it shouldn't be a pen. I think the Qatari VAR has got the Iranian ref into trouble there. Poor decision.
91'
The Uruguay man is going to ground and he has nowhere to put his arm. Not a pen for me.
90'
The VAR has called the referee over for a possible penalty!
Ronaldo puts Portugal ahead! B Fernandes puts a ball into the box and Ronaldo heads in from close range! The Uruguay right-back plays Ronaldo on so this should count.
52'
J Felix shoots and the ball strikes the sidenetting!
51'
An uninvited guest is on the pitch as a rainbow flag drops to the ground. The Iranian ref picks it up.
49'
Neves seems in some pain here. It's his left calf. I actually think Vecino was lucky not to see yellow.
48'
Neves is caught late by Vecino, but the Uruguayan avoids the yellow.
48'
J Felix's pass is deflected behind for a corner.
46'
Portugal get us going once again!
45'
HT: Portugal 0-0 Uruguay! Half-time in Qatar and a draw is fair. Portugal were the only team attacking in the first 30 minutes without creating much, but it opened up in the last 15. Bentancur came the closest for Uruguay when his effort was saved while Olivera has had a chance as well. For Portugal, who lost Mendes to injury, Ronaldo has probably come the closest. Back shortly!

45+3: Portugal attack down this near side and Guerreiro's cross beats everyone.
