Just out of interest but how do France get to host 3 tournaments in 32 years?

England have had one in 50 years. And we have better stadiums. And are the ones who actually created the damn game.

Weird that Portugal have only won 1 game in normal time to get to the final.
Also have only had to play Austria, Hungary, Iceland, Croatia, Poland, and Wales to get to the final. That is actually pretty remarkable.

Only team they were expected to beat were Iceland.

Rest are comfortably better than the Portuguese.

They are the story of the euros. Classic underdog story. The Leicester of the summer.

Can see Sissoko keeping his place for this he's basically like a second RB him and Sagna will pocket CR7.

They only change I can see from France is Kante maybe coming in for Matuidi but that's about it.

France have played better football throughout the tournament but in the finals of big tournaments anything can happen. On paper France should win but that man CR7 is a major asset for Portugal.
