A late winner from Ruben Neves ensured Portugal edged out Republic of Ireland 1-0 in a Group F clash on Saturday. The result secured a third straight victory and a five-point lead for Roberto Martinez’s side over second-placed Hungary.

Neves scored a stoppage-time header via a cross from Francisco Trincao to make up for Ronaldo’s 75th-minute penalty miss, which came when he blasted his shot straight down the middle and goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher stuck out his left foot to balloon the ball upward.
