This is Cristiano Ronaldo’s final European Championship match for the Portuguese football team, playing against France in EURO 2024.
Portugal vs. France in the UEFA Euro 2024 quarterfinal: Portugal, captained by Cristiano Ronaldo, was eliminated from the Euro 2024 quarterfinals by Kylian Mbappe’s France, who triumphed by penalty shootout. Ronaldo’s tenure at the European Championship ends here. At halftime in the quarterfinal at Hamburg’s Volksparkstadion, both teams were tied 0-0. As a result, France secured a semifinal matchup with Spain, who eliminated tournament hosts Germany.
France and Portugal played each other again in the Euro 2016 championship match. Another significant match between the two teams occurred eighteen years prior to this one, in the 2006 FIFA World Cup semifinal, in which Zinedine Zidane scored the game-winning penalty.
Although they were tipped as pre-tournament favorites this time, Portugal and France haven’t exactly blown the competition away thus far. Portugal failed to score in their last two games against Slovenia and Georgia, despite winning their opening two games.

Half-time: POR 0-0 FRA
France’s attacking play in the first half was brilliant in spurts. However, Portugal’s defense has really been the unyielding force in front of Mbappe’s irresistible French power. Apart from Mbappe, Griezmann and Camavinga have carried the majority of France’s heavy lifting.
After 60 minutes, POR 0-0 FRA
Diego Costa saves Portugal in this game once more. Kolo Muani was released in the middle of the pitch, giving him a chance to shoot. Costa, though, begins to dash out to cut off the angles. It also functions. Muani’s shot strikes Costa’s foot and leaves the goal harmlessly bouncing off it.
Diego Costa has come a long way under the bar already.
After 90+1 minutes, POR 0-0 FRA
The second half of the game consists of three extra minutes. We’ll go into extra time if nobody else scores in this situation.
