Stade de France, venue of the UEFA Euro 2016 final
The UEFA Euro 2016 final was the final match of UEFA Euro 2016, the fifteenth edition of the European Championship, UEFA's quadrennial competition for men's national football teams. The match was played before 75,868 spectators at the Stade de France(pictured) in Paris on 10July 2016 between Portugal and hosts France. Following a goalless 90 minutes, which saw Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo depart the match through injury, Portugal then took the lead in the 108th minute through substitute Eder after his low shot beat France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. This proved to be the contest's only goal, as Portugal won 1–0 to claim their first major tournament title. In winning the final, Portugal became the tenth different nation to win the European Championship, twelve years after losing their first final at home in UEFA Euro 2004. As the winners, Portugal gained entry into their first FIFA Confederations Cup, which was played in Russia in 2017. (Fullarticle...)
