Gary Lineker aims balding jibe at Frank Lampard during BBC’s Euro 2024 coverage

Roberto Martinez’s Portugal resume Euro 2024 action when they face a captivating Turkey side buoyed by raucous support at the Westfalenstadion on Saturday.

Cristiano Ronaldo and co. got the result they wanted as they squeezed past the Czech Republic with a last-minute 2-1 victory in Leipzig, but their unconvincing performance will give Turkey some hope.

But if that game in Leipzig was a little tepid, Turkey’s first game at Euro 2024 brought all the drama, from biblical storms and pre-match skirmishes to Georgia’s tournament debut and two goal-of-the-tournament contenders.

Those results leave these two sides battling out for control of Group F, with three points for either practically ensuring qualification at the top of the group .

Follow the score and all the latest updates from Turkey v Portugal below – plus the reaction to Georgia v Czech Republic and build-up to Belgium v Romania in the day’s late game:

Euro 2024: Turkey 0-3 Portugal

Bernardo Silva thinks he’s earned a penalty, but he went down too easily.

We have a brief break for a third pitch invader.

Fernandes plays a ball in to Neto, and there’s space to run into, but his dribbling is poor and he loses it to Demiral.

Portugal counter again, with Joao Neves – who just came on for Vitinha – squaring it to Ronaldo, who lays it off to Silva. The City man takes the shot rather than playing in Fernandes, and the attack ends.

There’ll be five minutes of added time in Dortmund.

Almost brilliant from Portugal as Ronaldo lays it off to Fernandes on the edge of the box. He looks like he’s going to sweep it to the left wing but instead he slips a ball through to the onrushing Silva, who just can’t quite get it under control as Bayindir races off his line.

Portugal are taking it pretty easy now. This game was over as a contest as soon as the third went in, and it’s been pedestrian ever since really.

Guler plays an inviting disguised pass into the box, but it’s cleared.

Portugal counter, but Ronaldo can’t get the required accuracy on the pass back to Neto.

Pepe does make way now, with many Turkey fans partaking in a standing ovation. He’s replaced by Benfica’s Antonio Silva.

Euro 2024: Turkey 0-3 Portugal

Pepe clears the first corner back out for another corner, and then he clears the second corner away before heading away the follow-up cross.

He’s the oldest player to ever play at a European Championship, and he’s had a great game today.

Euro 2024: Turkey 0-3 Portugal

Effective Turkey attacks have been few and far between in the second half, and another breaks down as Yılmaz loses the ball, but they do win a corner in the end.

Turkey make another change as an injured Akaydin is replaced by Merih Demiral.

Unsurprisingly, Ronaldo is looking like the most animated player on the pitch at the moment. You can tell the fact that he hasn’t scored yet is weighing on his mind.

He almost has a couple of chances as Portugal counter, but Pedro Neto can’t find him with a through ball or with the cross on the follow-up.
