FIFA World Cup, Portugal v Mexico; Iran v Angola, as it happens

[Anarcho-Socialist]

Portugal have qualified. A win or a draw will mean they will win the group.
Mexico need to beat Portugal to win the group, or draw to qualify for the last-16. Mexico will also qualify if Angola fail to beat Iran or do not overturn Mexico's goal difference.
Angola need to beat Iran and hope that Mexico is beaten to qualify. They also need to hope goal difference will go their way.
Iran cannot qualify, but a win will mean they won't finish last in their group.

3 points for a win. 1 point for a tied game.
