Gavin Bazunu 8: With no Darren Randolph, the 19-year-old stopper got the nod ahead of Caoimhin Kelleher. Denied Ronaldo the world record of international goals with a wonderful 15th-minute penalty save. Then saved from Ronaldo in the 89th minute off a free kick. But couldn’t keep out Ronaldo’s two late headers.

Seamus Coleman 8: Led by example at either end of the pitch as the right wing-back. Several darting runs – especially in the opening period – saw the skipper get in behind Raphaël Guerreiro. The Everton defender directed the defence to stave off the Portuguese as the pressure applied on in the last 25 minutes – to no avail though.
