Not a Portugal fan but they need to bin Santos asap. What a waste of one of the most talented squads in football

Incredible! Absolutely incredible result for Morocco. Huge congratulations to the first African nation in the World Cup SFs.

Portugal only have themselves to blame. They wasted too much time trying improbable crosses in the box when they have the talent to play around Morocco. Especially against 10 men.

Recover well Dalot and Bruno. Come back sharp.

1 gifted goal from a fake penalty. All he's done this WC.

Well done Ronaldo. Can't wait for part 2 of Piers' interview.

Might have only been 1 goal in that game but that was a fantastic game to watch, so tense! Morocco were superb!

It will be interesting to see the difference in opinion regarding Croatia and Morocco :smirk:

One is the most boring team at the World Cup and the other is an inspiration

Meh, do feel a bit sorry for Ronaldo, the guy clearly distraught.

Still, stay on the pitch with your team mates ffs.

Fernando Santos needs to go. He’s holding this team back.

Hoping for a France win

Unbelievable. Did not expect this. Credit to Morocco. As a transition team, who's better? Anyone who plays them will have to be able to break them down and be super quick to snuff any counters.
Think England or France will be o.k in that respect.

Amazing achievement for Morocco , will be gassed and without a few players for SF though so bigger underdogs than even last few games.

Best team won. They had half of the defense out. That Marocco manager is outstanding. Fernando Santos completely embarrassed.

Oh BTW Ronaldo is completely past it but he did his part during his career. Now I want to see who steps up. After this gormless display I think we have a very long way to go.

Sad for Bruno, didnt turn up today though. Ronaldo doing what he does best, leaving the place early.
