Portugal defeated Wales 2-0 at the Stade De Lyon to get to the final of the Euro 2016 Championship, and now await the winner between Germany and France.
After a listless but tactical first half, Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first goal of the game in the 50th minute, with a thumping header that the Welsh defence could do nothing about.
Ronaldo leapt in the air and headed the ball into the roof of the net; it was a brilliant assist from the left from Guerreiro.
The goal meant a record for Ronaldo, who is now tied with Michel Platini of France for the most goals (9) in the European Championship history.
Three minutes after that goal, Ronaldo was at work again. The Real Madrid striker shot goalwards and Luis Nani reacted quickest to deflecte the ball into the net.
It happened also to be Portugal’s first win within 90 minutes in six games during this year’s tournament.
It is also the first time Portugal have qualified for the final of the Euros on foreign soil.
