France reaches the semi-finals of the 2024 European Cup! France defeated Portugal in a penalty shootout. Unable to score once more, the French team withstood the Portuguese team’s attack. The Portuguese team’s morale improved slightly, but in the end they did not achieve better results.

After a dull first half, the game started to get interesting in the second half. Both teams might have had the upper hand, but once once more they failed to finish the game. So, logically, it was necessary to make the decision in overtime. Portugal then showed more danger and inspiration but still mightn’t finish the game.

Therefore, it is not surprising that France and Portugal have to decide who will continue their adventure in this European Cup through a penalty shootout. The cruel approach worked to France’s advantage. Joao Felix was the only player to miss, hitting the post. In the end, the French team won 3-5. The Blues will compete with Spain for a spot in the final.

Portugal exited the European Cup in the quarter-finals. This Friday night may be the last meeting of players such as Cristiano Ronaldo or Pepe under the Portuguese jersey… For former Devils coach Roberto Martinez, this result is also synonymous with failure.
