Match report:

Summary

It’s a painful exit for Portugal, but on the balance of play, it’s the right result. On paper, Chile should get nowhere near Portugal, but just as at the Copa America, Chile find a way. They should have won it in 120 minutes, but Claudio Bravo’s heroics in the shoot-out help them progress to the final, which will be against one of Germany and Mexico.

Bravo is hoisted into the air by his Chile team-mates but they can’t seem to bounce him in the air, they are just too tired, so they resort to a good old-fashioned bundle.

Thanks for your emails and tweets tonight, and cheers for reading. Stay tuned for Kieran Pender’s match report – live on the site shortly – and watch out for our MBM of tomorrow’s other semi-final.

Bye!

Full-time: Portugal 0-0 Chile (0-3 pens). Chile are in the final!

Ronaldo didn’t even get a chance to take a penalty!

SAVED! CHILE WIN! THEY ARE IN THE CONFEDERATIONS CUP FINAL!

Nani’s effort is saved! Bravo has saved all three of Portugal’s penalties! Chile progress to the Confederations Cup final!

GOAL! Portugal 0-3 Chile in the shootout

Sanchez sends Rui Patricio the wrong way! Portugal must score their next kick.

SAVED! Portugal 0-2 Chile in the shootout

An identical save from Bravo. João Moutinho has his head in his hands!

GOAL! Portugal 0-2 Chile in the shootout

Aranguiz makes no mistake

SAVED! Portugal 0-1 Chile in the shootout

Bravo guesses right from Quaresma’s effort. Bravo was at least two yards off his line when he made contact with the ball!

GOAL! Portugal 0-1 Chile in the shootout

Vidal goes left, Rui Patricio goes right.

Chile came so close there. They should have had a penalty, and hit the woodwork twice in the closing moments. They will take the first kick in the shoot-out, here comes Vidal …

We go to penalties … full-time in extra-time: Portugal 0-0 Chile

Spot kicks it is.

119 min: Chile make a final change, Isla is replaced by Fuenzalida.

Vidal hits the post! Rodriguez hits the underside of the bar with the rebound!

118 min: Chile hit the woodwork two times in as many seconds! Silva lays a nice ball back for Vidal who hits it first time. It’s a controlled slice drifting away from Rui Patricio, the ball hits the inside of the post, comes back to Rodriguez, who has the goal at his mercy but can only stick a foot out and loop the rebound back onto the underside of the crossbar! Fonte clears. That was an awkward bouncing ball for the Chile substitute, but an open goal. Vidal looks to the heavens, arms outstretched. Portugal are very lucky to still be level.

115 min: Oooof, that’s a nasty challenge from Andre Gomes on Vidal! Gomes is struggling here with the pace, and he’s immediately hooked off for Gelson Martins. The only thing is with that is, I’d fancy Andre Gomes to take a penalty.

114 min: What a lucky escape for Portugal. Chile definitely look to be finishing the stronger here. Cedric makes a desperate challenge on Sanchez, as the Arsenal man nips away on another counter attack. Yellow card, but that was a good foul. Sanchez looking dangerous.

113 min: Penalty appeal for Chile! Silva, just on, latches onto a square ball and bursts past Fonte. Silva goes down easily, but replays show there is a clear trip on Silva. Fonte definitely catches the substitute, but the referee indicates for a goal kick, despite Silva protests. Why hasn’t there been a VAR review? Isn’t this the whole point of the video referees?!

112 min: Francisco Silva comes on for Chile, on for the clattered Hernandez. It’s more or less a straight swap in the middle of midfield.

111 min: Bruno Alves is given a yellow card. He lead with his elbow for an aerial duel with Hernandez and a caught the Chilean No10. It wasn’t malicious, but there are some referees that might have opted for a harsher punishment.

109 min: Another dangerous Cedric cross … another superb defensive header from Isla.

MoM today: I’d plump for one of Vidal, Isla or Beausejour. Honourable mentions: Cedric, Diaz. This is Beausejour’s 99th cap for Chile, he would win his 100th in the final!

107 min: Waiting for the obligatory Andre Gomes shot from range … nothing as yet. Updates as and when they happen, guys.

Half-time in extra-time: Portugal 0-0 Chile

Fifteen minutes to go.

105 min: Aranguiz breaks into space for Chile, and then slips over. It’s looking like we will go to penalties.

103 min: Some more predictions:

“I will back Chile if the game were to head to penalties,” emails Jonah Lowoyan. “Alexis Sanchez deciding the final outcome of the shootout with a cheeky panenka will most certainly give me great satisfaction and pleasure.”

“I took Chile in regular time and have now jumped ship and bet Portugal to advance. If Chile wins in PK I will lose all bets so rooting for Portugal,” says Josh Furrow. “I’m at work so I can’t watch and have missed an hour of work straight refreshing your posts.”

“Why have the Portuguese not been able to take advantage their height?” asks Paul Cox. “Are the Chileans jumping higher? Good at winning the second balls? If it goes to penalties, Portugal wins. Not the result I want, but there’s a dull inevitability about Ronaldo winning everything.”

Poor crossing Paul, Cedric aside. And both Isla and Jara have defended very well.

101 min: The quality of Portugal’s subs is frightening. They make their third change: João Moutinho on, Adrien Silva off.

99 min: Vidal is everywhere. He’s first to meet Ronaldo on the edge of his own box, getting a crucial toe-poke to deny the Portuguese on the turn. Not two minutes later, it is Vidal who meets Isla’s cross. His header is goalbound, but Fonte’s block takes the sting out of the effort.

96 min: José Fonte booked for an across Sanchez, after the Arsenal man had given him the slip on the left wing.

95 min: Inches wide from Sanchez! Isla gets forward well and crosses to the Portugal penalty spot. Sanchez is completely unmarked, but plants his header just wide! That was so close! It looked as though it was in, then the spin took it wide.

94 min: Portugal have two subs left, including the extra one they get in extra time. Would like to see Gelson Martins come on for Andre Gomes. The Sporting Lisbon winger has lightning pace and could cause a lot of problems to a tiring Chilean defence.

92 min: Yet another kick-off, yet another wasted Andre Gomes shot from range. This time it’s 15 yards over the bar. Andre Gomes is now playing more centrally, with Quaresma and Nani parading the flanks.

Peeeeeep! We go again, readers.

Who are you backing if the game goes to penalties? Remember Chile have won the last two Copa America titles on penalties in the final. Email michael.butler@theguardian.com or tweet me @michaelbutler18.
