Portugal played well and become first time champion after reaching 2nd time till final. I will say France just was too relaxed to read the situation. France was overconfident even in round matches it was not playing good enough that's why Germany was favorite. Portugal just played normal and got lucky and this is fact now.
You can't say that they played well. The were third of their group and won only one out of seven matchs ! On more than 700 minutes of play, they dominated only 73 minutes...
Yeah, and on the final versus France, France dominated Portugal from the ball position. I thought portugal will lose though, but Eder make a single goal for Portugal and win.
Eder scored it because the referee, encouraged by this same Portuguese who did the hand, gave a free kick for Portugal while it should have belonged to France. Being such not fairplay is just astonishing...
Victory of Portugal is well deserved, judge or luck have nothing to do with this.
They played great defense and even without Ronaldo showed that they are great and united team, with clear plan and faith in victory.
France didn't show nothing special really. In fact, they didn't deserve victory in semi final with Germany.
In Final their main players didn't show nothing, Payet and Pogba.
I was sure that Portugal will win because they are not any more ''one man show'' as before but they became real team.
