    Was it offside? A handball? It's not entirely clear...

    Phew - relief for Portugal! The goal is given.

    Not sure what all that was about - but Portugal lead with just under 5 minutes left.

    GOAL! Portugal 2-1 Mexico

  • 16:41 GMT

    (82 mins) Youngster Andre Silva is on for Portugal. At just 21, he's a hot prospect for Portugal and has netted 7 times in 8 games so far for the national team. He's on for Quaresma. Can the young striker conjure something up for the European champs?
