When the draw was made, this looked like being an epic clash but Portugal’s 7-0 massacre of North Korea meant that, effectively, both teams were already through and what developed was a disappointing card-strewn encounter in which neither side really impressed. Portugal, who have yet to concede a goal in the tournament or find the net against the two better sides in Group G, progress to a meeting with Spain, while Brazil top the group and face an equally intriguing encounter with a brilliant but extremely fallible Chile. Both matches will surely be better than this one.
