Portugal 3-3 Spain: World Cup 2018
on: June 15, 2018, 09:05:13 PM



Ronaldo has run himself into a state of exhaustion. I think he has cramp. Quaresma almost wins it for Portugal! He collected a crossfield pass on the left, danced sweetly past two players and hit a low shot that was brilliantly blocked by the sliding Busquets. I think it was Busquets, anyway. Whoever it was has probably earned Spain a point.

Portugal on the attack, with one corner leading to another. If Ronaldo scores again, we might as well call off the World Cup and give him the trophy now.

It was a glorious free-kick, curled around the wall and into the right-hand corner of the net. That is astonishing. Before the free-kick, he was inhaling and concentrating as if he was about to take a penalty, not a free-kick from 25 yards. It’s spine-tingling stuff. His mental strength is off the charts.

Cristiano Ronaldo completes his hat-trick with a wonderful goal!

Pique fouls Ronaldo 25 yards from goal, slightly to the right of centre. I wonder who’ll take this.

Spain make their last substitution, with Lucas Vazquez replacing the excellent David Silva.

Diego Costa misses a good chance for a hat-trick, mishitting a first-time shot wide from Jordi Alba’s crisp cutback. The chance came at the end of another delightful move. On this evidence, Spain are in the top group of contenders with Brazil and Germany. They have been wonderful.
