Portugal Defeats France To Win Euro 2016

1 Min Read

Eder scored in extra time to give Portugal a 1-0 win over host France in the EURO 2016 final on Sunday.

In what was a lackluster match, Eder broke lose from his defender in the 109th minute and fired a shot from distance that beat Hugo Lloris in the French net.

Portugal striker Cristiano Ronaldo left the game in the 25th minute after suffering a knee injury on earlier tackle.

Its Portugal’s first victory in a major competition and it will feel all the more sweet perhaps given they battled without their talismanic striker Ronaldo.

Portugal’s defence display was top-notch as France come up woefully short.
