72'
That was a good 70-minute performance from Ronaldo. He got on the score sheet and looked relatively sharp, although he could have scored one or two more. He'll be pleased.

Ronaldo comes off to be replaced by Guedes. Santos giving his main man a 20-minute rest.
70'
Silva takes aim! The Portuguese striker gets the shot away from the edge of the opposition box, but it's straight at Marciano and the Israeli goalkeeper beats it away.
69'
This was the second Portugal goal...
68'
Mendes has done well this evening. Might he start at left back in the first game of Portugal's Euros campaign against Hungary next week? It's a distinct possibility...
67'
Portugal have such an excellent record when it comes to producing young players. Only last week, they made the final of the U21 European Championships. They are prolific!

... and Dias comes off. He is replaced by Danilo who can play at centre back.

Changes for Portugal as Neves come off to be replaced by Moutinho...
62'
Shot blocked! Ronaldo takes on the effort himself inside the area, but his shot is blocked before it could reach Marciano in the Israel goal. He wants a second one tonight!
61'
This was the opener...
60'
Chance for Bernardo! That probably should have been a third Portugal goal with Bernardo played through by Fernandes, but Marciano puts up a hand to make the save!
59'
4-2-3-1 formation is a shape that suits this group of Portugal players with Ronaldo at the head of the pack. Fernandes, Felix and Jota offer a lot of fluidity in this system.
58'
The last time Portugal lost a match was last November against France when they suffered a 1-0 defeat in the Nations League. Santos’ side don’t lose many matches. Tough to break down.

56'
Ronaldo thinks he should have been awarded a penalty kick for what he viewed as a foul in the box, but there wasn't much in that. They were only half-hearted appeals.
55'
It's clear from the way Portugal have played this match so far that Cancelo will be very important to their system at the Euros. He's their primary way of getting out from the back.
54'
Cancelo was central to Manchester City’s success in winning the Premier League last season. He is one of the best full backs in the game, capable of playing on either flank.
53'
Portugal have a lot of flair and creativity, but it’s important that they have structure and Danilo is the sort of player who can provide that along with the likes of Carvalho.
51'
Danilo Pereira is an underrated member of this Portugal team. He is capable of playing in a number of different positions, whether it’s in the defence or in the centre of the midfield.
50'
Ronaldo in at the back post! The Portugal number seven just couldn't stretch far enough to divert a freekick delivery to the back post on target. Not far wide at all, though!
