Keane felt Wales not really having a go at Portugal until they went 2-0 down was 'a cop out'. He was also critical of James Chester, Wales' weakest defender in the air, marking Cristiano Ronaldo at the corner from which Portugal's opening goal was scored.

Keane also criticised Ashley Williams, who he described as 'experienced', for his role in Portugal's second where Nani redirected a Ronaldo shot beyond the reach of Wayne Hennessey.
