GOAL! BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA 0-4 PORTUGAL (JOAO CANCELO)
Bosnia and Herzegovina's defence is undone again. Fernandes is released on the right, he pulls it back from the byline and although Ronaldo misses with his connection, Cancelo is free on the edge of the box to curl a shot into the top corner.

DANGEROUS ATTACK
Portugal are purring now as Fernandes switches a diagonal ball to Leao and his cross is begging to be finished, but it's just over the head of Felix.
30'
OFFSIDE
Something for the home supporters to get excited about as Demirovic is teed up for a shot from inside the penalty area. It's blocked, however, and then comes the raised offside flag.

Ronaldo is on a first-half hat-trick and in the form he's in, you just wouldn't be surprised if he manages it.

CLEVER FINISH BY RONALDO!
But it won't count - he's offside. It was a lovely through ball from Felix and CR7 clipped it over the onrushing goalkeeper but it was all in vain.

HOW DID HE MISS?!
A goal almost made in Manchester as Dalot's pull-back seemingly sets it up on a plate for his United team-mate but from point-blank range Fernandes fails to hit the target!
17'
WAYWARD PASS
A rare wayward pass from goalkeeper Diogo Costa draws cheers from the home supporters.
16'
FRUSTRATION
Home fans growing frustrated as a referee's decision goes against their side as Danilo is awarded a free-kick in midfield.
14'
NO WAY THROUGH
Barisic is faced with the dangerous sight of Leao running at him down the left flank but the Bosnia and Herzegovina defender manages to stick with him and blocks his attempted cross.
12'
TRACKED ALL THE WAY
Kolasinac tracks the run of Fernandes all the way and beats him in a foot race to an attempted ball over the top.
10'
HOME FANS SILENCED
The home supporters have lost their voices and seemingly their belief. A pass to no one by Cimirot only compounds their misery.

AWKWARD MOMENT
Leao leads a dangerous Portugal counter-attack. The ball is switched wide to Fernandes whose cross is awkward for the home defence but Sehic gathers a hurried clearance.

GOAL! BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA 0-1 PORTUGAL (CRISTIANO RONALDO)
Ronaldo sends the goalkeeper Sehic the wrong way as he bags his 126th goal for his country. Eight goals in seven qualifiers.
Not a bad record, really.
