It's done. Portugal have been crowned champions of Euro 2016. Things started off absolutely diabolically after Portugal's star man and captain was taken off injured in tears as it was his chance in the final to win Portugal's first title, but he got injured and taken off on a stretcher with a knee problem. Quaresma soon came on for CR7. I didn't know what Portugal would do now. But they actually played well. Rui Patricio was a wall after denying Antoine Griezmann and Mousa Sissoko with some astonishing saves, and Pepe and Fonte at the back were solid. In the second half, Coman and Gignac came on as well as Eder and Joao Mouthino. At the end of the second half, in injury time, Gignac mugged off Pepe in the box and had Patricio beaten, but luckily for Portugal, his effort came of the woordwork. It was 0-0 FT. As we headed to extra time, Portugal were looking quite dangerous. After a close freecick, youngster Raphael Guerreiro sent a brilliant effort onto the crossbar. After Eder out strengthened Koscienly he smashed a rocket of a shot from 25 yards out into the bottom corner of the goal and Lloris couldn't do anything with an absolutely sensational strike. 11 million people celbrated in the 109th mimute, as Eder had delivered to give Portugal the lead with 11 minutes left. Ronaldo was ecstatic, and so was everyone for Portugal. They held on till the end, and are victors of the UEFA EURO 2016.
