The chief reason his side were still in the game long enough to snatch victory in extra time. He produced a string of superb saves, the best of which was to deny Griezmann when he adjusted his position superbly.
The young Southampton defender had the edge in his battle with Dimitri Payet down Portugal's right and was a big reason France's star-studded attack found itself in a cul-de-sac.
Strangely sloppy in possession early on but recovered his composure well after that frenetic start from the French that saw them create a flurry of chances.
Showed what a fine defender he is when he is not trying to influence referees with his play-acting. The veteran was at the heart of Portugal's latest shut-out, and seemed to enjoy every minute of it. Like his Real Madrid team-mate Ronaldo he is now champion of Europe for club and country.

The youngest man to appear in a European Championship final at the age of 18 years and 326 days - and he was also Portugal's best outfield player. France found it virtually impossible to get past him in midfield. Bayern Munich have got themselves a frightening young talent.
Put over Portugal's best cross in normal time but another who was mostly employed to deny France time and space on the ball when they came over the halfway line.
Wasted an excellent early chance but was prepared to run himself into the ground for his team, often opening up space for his team-mates.

He tried desperately to carry on but could not run, let alone produce any magic, and was carried off soon afterwards in tears. He returned, much happier, to collect the trophy and join the celebrations and no wonder - he has a first ...

Jun 23, 2021 · CDM: Danilo Pereira – 7/10. He managed to disrupt France’s rhythm in the game and was also quite lively in the opposition half. He got substituted at half-time. CM: Joao Moutinho – 6/10. The veteran midfielder made a couple of inviting chances in the final third and also had two shot attempts. However, he lacked energy at times in the second half.
