    THERE GOES THE FINAL WHISTLE!
    No 10th goal for Portugal, but they will settle for just the nine. Luxembourg bruised and battered as they escape from the Algarve avoiding double figures. Final score: Portugal 9 Luxembourg 0. Not a bad return for Roberto Martinez's side who lead Group J with 18 points from six matches.
    88'
    THERE IS THE NINTH!
    Going to be a record win for Portugal as they move 9-0 ahead. João Félix with the finish from outside the box. A splendid finish after being set up by Rúben Neves.

    HAS BEEN A TRAINING DRILL THIS
    But Portugal will be happy enough with their lot. And then some. Portugal equal their biggest ever win at 8-0. Can they make it nine?

    GOAL FOR PORTUGAL!
    Number eight as Fernandes passes home from the Horta pass through the middle with the white shirts nowhere to be seen. A grim, grim night for Luxembourg as the coach Luc Holtz disappears up the tunnel in disgust.

    SEVENTH HEAVEN FOR PORTUGAL!
    Luxembourg in complete disarray as loose ball breaks to Jota in the box and he needs no invitation to slam home the seventh. Ah well, at least the visiting fans can enjoy the Algarve.

    MORE CHANGES IN THE PIPELINE FOR PORTUGAL
    Final two of the evening for them as Rúben Neves replaces Danilo Pereira and Otávio takes over from Rafael Leão.

    SUPERB COUNTER ATTACK BY PORTUGAL
    Rafael Leão on the move from one end of the pitch to the other and Luxembourg do well to stop him dancing the ball into the net. Which looked likely as he went at full pace.
    72'
    LUXEMBOURG CONTINUE TO BATTLE ON
    Sébastien Thill with an effort at goal that is blocked as the visiting side earn their first corner of the evening.
    70'
    FINE STOP BY MORIS IN VISITING GOAL
    Horta goes for power this time, but straight at the goalkeeper who stands tall to make the stop.

    LUXEMBOURG BUTCHER ANOTHER ATTEMPT
    Vincent Thill drags an effort well wide of goal. Doesn't get any easier for the underdogs.

    MAKE THAT SIX FOR PORTUGAL!
    Subsitute Ricardo Horta accepts the pass from Jota to thump a blistering effort into the rigging. VAR check for offside confirms Jota is good to go and Portugal lead 6-0.

    ANOTHER BOOKING ON THE WAY

    CHANGES FOR THE HOME SIDE!
    Three of them as Ricardo Horta replaces Bernardo Silva, João Félix is in for Gonçalo Ramos and João Cancelo takes over from Nélson Semedo. So much talent on that bench for Roberto Martinez.
    60'
    STILL HALF AN HOUR OF PLAY LEFT
    Luxembourg yet to have a shot at goal, but they do now as Diogo Costa is forced to dive low to his right to claw out the Leandro Barreiro effort. Was a decent hit and solid stop too.

    GOAL FOR PORTUGAL!
    Bruno Fernandes executes a terrific pass and Diogo Jota races through to slam home the fifth for Portugal. Fernandes running the show tonight.

    BOOKING FOR THE VISITORS
    Vincent Thill with a clattering crude challenge on Rafael Leão. Right through the back of the man. You can't be doing that. And into the book he goes.
    55'
    PORTUGAL 16-0 CLEAR ON THE SHOT COUNT!
    Gonçalo Inacio comes up from the back to head over the bar. Marking is a shambles for Luxembourg. As it has been all night. The excellent Fernandes with the cross.
