VIDEO⟩ Portuguese team puts European champions to power in an exciting match – EURO 2020 – Apollo.lv – Sports

In the quarterfinals, Belgium will meet with Italy in Munich on July 2.

At the start of the match, FIFA’s world leader Belgium controlled the game, but did not create dangerous moments at the Portuguese goal. The first serious moment of the game was 25 minutes into the game, Christian Ronaldu sent a free kick in high over the penalty box. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving.

In the second half, the two teams exchanged for quick attacks, but they were more dangerous for Portugal. However, in the 42nd minute, Torgans Azārs shot the ball into the goal with a quick and accurate long shot, surpassing Ruī Patrisiu – 1: 0 in favor of the Belgian team.

At the beginning of the second half, Kevin de Brujne, the midfielder of the Belgian national team, left the field due to injury, and Dris Mertens took his place.

In the 58th minute of the match, after an excellent pass from Christian Ronald, Diego Jota hit the goal, but a little later Joao Felix hit the head with the goal, the ball fell into Kurt’s hands. The Portuguese continued to attack, but faced the close defense of the opponents on the penalty area.

In one of the episodes, the two hottest football players in the ranks of both teams Romel Lukak and Pepe merged. In the penultimate minute of the match, after a whistle, Pepe deliberately and rudely played against Torgan Azar, who was warned with a yellow card.

Seven minutes before the end of the regular time, Rafael Gerreiru hit the post from an excellent position. In the last minutes of time, both Andre Silva and Ronald threatened the goal guarded in Kurtu. Desperate efforts to reach a draw and an extra 30 minutes failed, forcing Portugal to relinquish his European championship.
