Portugal are champions of Europe after defeating hosts France 1-0 after extra-time in the Euro 2016 final played at the Stade de France on Sunday night.
Portugal had to play most of the match without talisman Cristiano Ronaldo as the captain’s second EURO final ended after just 25 minutes after Dimitri Payet had clattered into his standing leg in a tackle after only eight minutes.
Despite receiving treatment, the Real Madrid star was unable to fully recover as he signalled to the bench and was tearfully stretchered and replaced by Ricardo Quaresma in the 25th minute.
Although a big blow for Portugal, the team overcame the shaky reaction to their captain’s exit and started to provide some serious challenge to France’s early domination.

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eder hits a screamer from outside the box in 10th minute and Portugal leads 1-0! This game has just become interesting. France are about to lose at their home in a major competition! What a strike from Eder.
