Leao what a talent.

This Portuguese team has so many young prospects.

Only on the pitch 5 minutes. Portugal disgustingly good.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

All the Portugal players have looked great in this game (aside from CR7).

Switzerland have played so badly I wouldn't be surprised if their team had indeed been ill as per their manager.

I would not be rating/overrating Ramos/Felix/Pepe/Leao etc. based on this game.

It's funny that Ronaldo is so desperate for a goal and this guy comes in and need a few minutes. You see Ronaldo walking away a bit after the goal.

Proper statement. They looked a completely different team form the one we saw in the group stages. Really enjoyable to watch.

Ronaldo has to be a bench option only at this stage of his career. Ramos pretty obviously going to start now.

Looks a real finisher, few players like that in modern football.

Ronaldo will probably be shaking up his contacts and friends in the Federation to force Santos to start him next game
