Regular time ended in a goalless draw, so the two teams resorted to extra time.
In the 105th minute, Portugal won a penalty kick, and everyone thought that Cristiano Ronaldo would finally open his goal scoring record in Euro 2024.

Extra time also ended in a goalless draw, so the two teams decided to go to penalty kicks, where football smiled at Portugal thanks to goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
Costa saved 3 penalty kicks, while Ronaldo successfully executed the first kick for Portugal and apologized to the fans for missing the other kick.
Bernardo Silva scored the final penalty kick, giving Portugal a 3-0 win and qualifying to face France in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals on Friday, July 5.
