Second-Half Report
55th Minute: Brilliant long ball from Tiago, Pauleta turns and hits on the volley, off the crossbar! So close.
59th Minute: Owen shrugs off the defenders and shoots well, brilliant save from Ricardo though.
Brilliant reactions from Ricardo
60th Minute: GOALLLLLLLLLLLL! From the resulting corner Joe Cole gets a free header and in it goes, England are heading for the Semis!
Video Clip:
Are England in the Semis?
64th Minute: Rooney inches away from his first World-Cup goal with a brilliant header.
68th Minute: Owen gets a straight red
after a stupid tackle on Pauleta, Pauleta looks injured here! What on earth was Michael Owen thinking - only he knows I'm afraid...
69th Minute: Substitution,
Pauleta off Postiga on, Postiga scored a goal in Extra-Time against England 2 years ago - will he score again?
76th Minute: Rooney misses again with his head, they should stop providing him high balls and give him some to whack.
Rooney has proved that he isn't accurate with his head
78th Minute: That's exactly what Beckham does, Rooney's first touch takes it a bit wide but his second is fantastic and is unlucky to find the post.

88th Minute: Deco closed down once again, England's defence has been magnificent!
FULL-TIME
SEMI-FINALS HERE ENGLAND COME! The crowd in the AOL Arena go mad, Portugal just weren't good enough on the day - England were.
Bring it on World! The message coming from Wayne Rooney's long arms
So England are in the Semi-Finals, joint best they've done since 66 - Sven's men can celebrate tonight, Michael Owen will miss the next match for sure and with the severity of his challenge he may miss the final, more on that story later. In the Semis, England will play either France or USA - both outcomes will provide us with some Grade A entertainment. So until then goodbye.
