A place in the World Cup quarter-finals is up for grabs when neighbours Portugal and Spain face off in a blockbuster battle on Monday evening.
There’s also the intriguing subplot of two of the sport’s biggest names meeting at opposite ends of their careers as 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo attempts to extend his final World Cup campaign and 18-year-old Lamine Yamal looks to make his mark in his first tournament.
Portugal needed a controversial VAR call to progress from their last-32 clash with Croatia. Joško Gvardiol thought he had cancelled out Gonçalo Ramos’s late header with the last kick of the game only for ‘Snicko’ technology to controversially rule out the goal.
Spain had a less stressful outing in the previous round as the European champions breezed past Austria. Mikel Oyarzabal bagged a brace and Tottenham full-back Pedro Porro also got on the scoresheet.
The winners will face either co-hosts USA or European rivals Belgium in the last eight.
