72'
Manuel Fernandes enters the game and replaces João Mário.
Another Portugal change, with João Mário coming off and his replacement is Manuel Fernandes.
67'
Courtois is receiving medical treatment at the moment after making the save to deny Quaresma, however it looks like he will be fine to continue.
66'
PORTUGAL COUNTER! This game is really open now and Belgium are starting to leave themselves more open at the back as they attempt to score at the other end. Gonçalo Guedes fed the ball through to Quaresma who only had Courtois to beat, but the Belgium keeper was quickly off his line to make the stop. The linesman also had his flag up for offside, so it wouldn't have counted anyway.
64'
ANOTHER SAVE! Meunier forces Beto into making a terrific save, the right wing-back was completely unmarked as he sprinted into the box and he tries to place the ball into the far corner of the net. However, the Portuguese keeper got down quickly and made sure the score remained 0-0. Belgium are getting closer.
63'
Ricardo Quaresma enters the game and replaces Gelson Martins.
Portugal make their first substitution of the game, with Gelson Martins replaced by Ricardo Quaresma.
60'
Hazard shows his brilliance by evading the tackle of three or four Portugal players on the half-way line, before finally being brought to a halt by Moutinho. The Chelsea man has shown his quality tonight, but he hasn't been able to break down this stubborn Portuguese backline.
58'
It remains goalless here in Brussels as we approach the hour mark. Belgium have come closest to scoring in this second half, but Portugal still look dangerous going forward themselves and it remains a very even game.
55'
D. Boyata enters the game and replaces V. Kompany.
GREAT SAVE! Vertonghen forces Beto into making a superb save! The defender turned on the edge of the area, skipped past a Portuguese defender and then tried to curl the ball into the top corner of the net. However, he doesn't get enough placement on the shot and Beto makes an excellent save to deny the Tottenham man.
Belgium make another substitution, with Vincent Kompany heading off the pitch and he has been replaced by Dedryck Boyata.
54'
Pepe gets yellow.
Roberto Martinez is yet to name his final Belgium squad, so there are still places up for grabs tonight and those players on the fringe of the team will be hoping to impress their manager and book a place on the plane to Russia.
Pepe is shown the first yellow card of the game, after he brings Hazard down deep inside the Portuguese half.
51'
Belgium have a free-kick in a very good shooting position after Moutinho brings De Bruyne down. The Manchester City player stands over the ball, but they opt to play it short to Hazard, however his pass back to De Bruyne is then cut out and the opportunity is wasted.
46'
A. Januzaj enters the game and replaces D. Mertens.
N. Chadli enters the game and replaces Y. Carrasco.
M. Fellaini enters the game and replaces M. Dembélé.
C. Benteke enters the game and replaces R. Lukaku.

45' +1
That's the half-time whistle!
45'
Portugal are really threatening now! This time it's Guedes with the shot after being set up by Bernardo Silva, but his strike goes just wide of the post. A terrific end to the first half.
44'
ANOTHER PORTUGAL CHANCE! Gelson Martins raced through on goal, comfortably beating the Belgium defenders with his pace, the pass was slightly wide of goal so the winger had to shoot from a tight angle and he fires it just wide of the Belgium goal.
42'
CLOSE! Bernardo Silva with the best chance for Portugal so far! The midfielder fired a low shot from a tight angle after working the space well on the right wing, his effort gets a slight nick off Vertonghen, which takes it just inches wide of the far post. The resulting corner comes to nothing.
40'
Decent effort! Goncalo Guedes has been heavily involved tonight and he had a good opportunity just a moment ago, rising above Kompany deep inside the penalty area after a Raphael Guerreiro cross but he couldn't keep his header down and it goes well over the bar.
39'
Not long to go until the break now, can either side break the deadlock before the half-time whistle?
36'
Portugal are getting themselves into good positions in the Belgium half, but they are lacking a clinical final ball and an attacking player who can carve open the hosts defence. However, they should be very pleased with their performance so far and with Cristiano Ronaldo still yet to join the squad, they may be quietly confident about their chances in Russia.
34'
We're past the midway point in this first half now and it remains goalless between the two teams, but Belgium are starting to ask questions of this Portuguese defence.
31'
CHANCE BELGIUM! Half of the ground think it's in, including the sound man who started to play Belgium's goal music! Carrasco ripples the side netting and then the back of the net, after his shot from a tight angle goes narrowly wide. The winger cut inside and didn't have much to aim at in the box so decided to take the shot on himself and almost scored the opening goal of the game.
28'
Portugal have really grown into the game these last five minutes or so. They are not allowing Belgium as much time and space on the ball, which is causing the Red Devils to play sloppy passes in midfield and Portugal are taking advantage of this, as shown by the Moutinho chance a few minutes ago.
23'
CHANCE PORTUGAL! Moutinho forces Courtois into making the first real save of the game, firing a low effort at goal from around 25 yards out. The Chelsea shot stopper got down well to push the effort away from goal and after watching the replay, it looked to be heading wide anyway. However, the Belgium keeper wasn't to know that and made sure it wasn't heading into the back of the net with a fine save.
21'
De Bruyne and Dembele look very comfortable in the middle of the pitch for Belgium, they are dictating the play for the hosts and controlling the pace of the game. A joy to watch.
19'
Portugal almost catch Belgium napping with a quick counter-attack! Goncalo Guedes sprints through on goal, but he is forced wide and has to pull the ball back to his teammates who are making runs towards the edge of the box. However, Belgium manage to get players back behind the ball and clear the danger just in time.
16'
Despite their dominance in possession, Belgium have struggled to create any goalscoring chances so far, much of their play is in the middle of the pitch and in front of the Portugal defence, with Beto yet to be tested. However, the hosts are well on top and you can sense goals will eventually come in this game.
13'
Hazard is causing Portugal a lot of problems down the left wing, just moments ago he dribbled the ball into a dangerous area, after cutting inside from the left and he tried to work space for a shot at goal, but he takes too long on the ball and eventually gets crowded out by a couple of Portugal players. The warning signs are there for the visitors.
9'
There is a terrific atmosphere inside the King Baudouin Stadium, the home supporters are really getting behind their team. They will be expecting the Red Devils to cause plenty of problems at the World Cup and advance to the latter stages of the tournament.
7'
Belgium are enjoying a spell of early possession here, they are playing good, quick football and are looking to stretch this Portugal defence, as Mertens and Hazard are seeing plenty of the ball down both wings, with Lukaku the main target man inside the penalty area.
5'
Jan Vertonghen is Belgium's most capped player in their history and tonight he is making his 100th appearance for the Red Devils. Prior to kick-off he was honoured for his achievement.
3'
Portugal now have a decent chance to open the scoring! Gonçalo Guedes is given far too much space on the edge of the Belgium penalty area after being picked out by Bernardo Silva. The striker powers an effort towards goal, but it flies high over the crossbar. A very good start to this game, both teams looking to score early on.
2'
Belgium almost get off to a perfect start, with Lukaku getting away from his marker deep inside the penalty area, aiming to get his head on the end of a cross from Hazard, but he doesn't get enough power on the effort and Beto comfortably gathers.
1'

HALF-TIME: BELGIUM 0-0 PORTUGAL
Portugal end the first half well on top, in the last five minutes of the half they had a couple of excellent chances to open the scoring, after Belgium had dominated much of the half. Bernardo Silva and Goncalo Guedes went close for the visitors and the half-time whistle came at the right time for Belgium, who were struggling to cope at the back. This game could go either way and hopefully we will see goals in the second period.
FULL-TIME: BELGIUM 0-0 PORTUGAL
That's from us tonight folks, we hope you enjoyed the game.
It ends goalless in Brussels between Belgium and Portugal, in a game that didn't really live up to expectations. Both teams had chances to score, especially Portugal at the end of the first half but they were unable to beat Courtois in the Belgium goal and the hosts threatened themselves early on in the second period, with Vertonghen and Meunier forcing Beto into a couple of excellent saves, but overall they didn't do enough to win the game. Both teams have other friendlies still to play ahead of the World Cup and they will be hoping to win those in order to gain momentum prior to the tournament.
