Portugal beats France to win first EUFA Euro cup
Portugal beats France to win first EUFA Euro cup
Portugal celebrates its first-ever major title on a night of high drama on the outskirts of Paris, France.
After 35 games at the European Championships, Portugal football team won their first trophy in the continent.
Portugal defeated France 1-0 in 120 minutes game after substitute Eder scores with fantastic strike in extra-time to stun hosts at Stade de France.
Portugal are the second team to win the Euro Finals scoring only one goal, after Greece defeated Portugal by 1-0 in 2004.
The tension reached fever pitch early on, starting with Ronaldo’s injury, and continued through a lively, but fruitless second half and beyond.
Eder’s unlikely heroics finally ended the deadlock, and France lacked the energy, guile and quality to solve the puzzle that was Portugal’s determined defense.
