    Am I the only that thinks it's been an enjoyable game so far?

    Portugal goal would make it very interesting.

    France have been pretty sluggish in the first half for most of their games (except Iceland). It will be interesting to see if they raise their game in the second half.

    We wouldn't even want to kick him if he wasn't diving, we would just enjoy the beautiful goals he scores. Instead of all the other things that he does instead - he doesn't need to do it, and nobody should be let away with it. So when he really does get injured is it Karma?

    He's far from the only diver at this tournament. He is certainly no saint, but he has given a lot of joy to the football world, and is at least worthy of a bit of decency and respect

    RTE are back from the ads. Let's see how much longer TV3 go with their adfest.

    Spent the last 15 minutes of the half thinking that. An early Portugal goal would set things up nicely in the second half.

    My wallet has fewer moths than the Stade de France! Sissoko clearly playing for a move :)

    Roy Keane wants his joke back.

    I'm sick for Ronaldo.

    Such a shame.

    Me too. Not only for Ronaldo himself but that whole game is just different now.
    Sick is the good word.

    If pogba is worth 100 mill then Sissoko is worth a billion!

    He would be worth even more if he could control the ball during his 'powerful' runs.....there's a reason he was at Newcastle!

    France should think about bringing on Pogba for the second half.

    No he wont.
    He will say, its a shame for portugal.

    When a player is injured, he injured.
    Tell you something for nothing - Dunphy will eviscerate Ronaldo at half-time. Bottler, coward, gutless, he'll throw the lot at him.

    Told ya.

    Terry Henry thinks a lot of these players have something more in their locker. Hopefully they can access their lockers at half time .

    Payet got the ball. Ronaldo was just unlucky and tbh he may have been carrying a knock already.
    He actually was.

    What if they can't find the keys.....?

    I admittedly find Ronaldo a bit of a poser. Super goal scorer but a poser. That said I genuinely feel sorry for him here. Tough on a player that's so influential to go off in a major final

    An opinion on what? Seriously. A serious knee injury by the looks of it. Ronaldo distraught in what is probably his only chance to win a major trophy for his country. The **** else opinion can you have

    I said I was dissapointed Ronaldo went off. I want Portugal to win and would like to see him win the Euros for the career he has had. It's terrible he was in tears leaving the pitch as it means so much to him. I just felt that he could have walked off the pitch as he went back on and ran around for a few minutes. In most other sports the player would just walk off but that's the way football is I suppose. I have nothing to be bitter about with regard Ronaldo he is a joy to watch.

    Ronaldo has played in a euro final before, cup finals, champions league finals. The bloke is doing alright for himself as a footballer.

    I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when Ron Atkinson first saw that "Let Them Drink Beer" advert.

    Deschamps had chosen to put Sissoko in the role Pogba is best at, presumably because he believes Pogba can act as a playmaker. It's a way of getting both in the team.

    Deschamps has been somewhat justified with Sissoko's performance, but put Pogba closer to goal and you get a different player.

    Why? Are you referring to the 2004 incident?
