Silva’s emphatic passing record stood out in Saransk, where the Euro 2016 winners faced a determined Iran side.

Ricardo Quaresma’s stunning effort on the stroke of half-time handed Portugal the lead, but a late penalty from Karim Ansarifard denied Silva’s men top spot in Group B – Spain winning the group.

Fellow Fox Ricardo Pereira was unused from the bench in the draw.

Portugal will face Uruguay on Saturday 30 June in Sochi for a spot in the quarter-finals.

Decisive fixtures for Kasper Schmeichel’s Denmark and Ahmed Musa, Kelechi Iheanacho and Wilfred Ndidi’s Nigeria follow on Tuesday.

Should Denmark defeat France, they will finish top of Group C, while Nigeria know a win against Lionel Messi’s Argentina would see them through to the Last-16.
