Portugal-France: 1-0
After a long gap, I waited till 12.30 to see the final match of the EURO cup between France and Portugal. But I was really disappointed to see the best player of my supporting team leaving the ground wiping lying on stretcher. But the last smile goes to him, Christiano Ronaldo when Eder’s goal in the second period of extra time made the match for Portugal.
Eder’s goal was clinical finish, Hugo Louris had nothing to do. His great header scored the winning goal after 109 minutes and with that he gave a taste of the first EURO cup to his country.
Ronaldo, 31, was injured in a collision with Dimitri Payet in the ninth minute and Marca says that the Real Madrid star suffered a grade 1 anterior cruciate ligament sprain in his left knee. He Sat down in a few minutes at the start of the match. Three out of three times, he had gone, returned to the field again. With tears in his eyes and tried to play dead.

“Unfortunately, things didn’t go well for me. I injured myself in the first few minutes. But I’ve always believed in these players. They have quality and ability, along with our coach’s strategy to win,” Ronaldo said after the game. Coach Fernando Santos said at his pre-match news conference that he does not believe Ronaldo will retire from international football after the game.

Sisoko wing as bulldozers were trying to create the opportunity to move forward with the ball. A cool head of Grizzman was almost, if not Rui Pyatrisio saves the ball entered the goal.

Renato Sánchez dribbled to find an opening. After the break France attacked again n again, but was unable to Finnish. Griezman beat out a simple head.
