Belgium rebounded from a tough first up loss to Italy with a resounding 3-0 win over the Republic of Ireland.

It was scoreless at halftime before the Belgian side took control soon after the match had restarted.

A double to Romelu Lukaku either side of an Axel Witsel header was more than enough to get by a gallant Irish side that desperately fought against their much more talented opponents.

Hungary needed an 88th minute own goal equaliser in Marseille after dominating Iceland for much of the game as a controversial penalty put the Nordic minnows ahead in the first half.

A robust Hungarian performance was marred by individual errors, which nearly cost the team, as a 93rd minute free kick (that was nearly a penalty) was deflected wide.

Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty as Portugal failed to convert once again in a scoreless draw with Austria in Paris.

The first half was reminiscent of Portugal’s previous against Iceland, as Fernando Santos’ side enjoyed the majority of possession and scoring chances. However, the Portuguese failed to capitalise on their dominance, with Nani and Ronaldo once again guilty of not making the most of their opportunities.
