Munich (Germany) – It is Portugal to triumph in this edition of the Nations Leaguethanks to the success centered to the penalty kicks against Spain after the 2-2 of the first 120 minutes of the game. Therefore, the goals of Zubimeni, Nuno Mendes, Oyarzabal and Ronaldo were not enough to decree a winner in the regulatory times. The first chance is for CR7 and companions and arrives in the 5th minute, when Neves tries with the right from a favorable position but crushes too much and sends on the side. On the opposite front, at 16 ‘, Williams sets himself up and from the right he concentrates and tries a shot on the second post that comes out slightly. The Iberian advantage reaches 21 ‘. Zubimeni starts centrally and enlarges on the right for Yamal, who serves a poisonous ball in the center which, after a rebound on Williams, ends up again on the right of Zubimeni who puts the goalkeeper for the 1-0. The Lusitans put us just five minutes to equalize. Pedro Neto serves backwards Nuno Mendes, who enters the area by burning Mingueza and putting on a Simon in the distant corner with a surgical conclusion. The men of De La Fuente are not there and at 45 ‘they take the lead. Pedri takes possession of a ball in midfield, advances towards the edge of the area and pits in the area for Oyarzabal, who with a soft touch with the right dish exceeds Diogo Costa, signing the 2-1 with which the two teams go to rest.
The boys of Martinez start strong and draw the accounts at 3 ‘with Bruno Fernandes, but the referee cancels for a previous offside of Pedro Neto’s return. At 16 ‘the draw arrives. Nuno Mendes Sgasa on the left leaving Yamal and Mingueza on the spot, crosses the center for Ronaldo who, after having made his way off with the body on Cucurella, beats Unai Simon from two steps for the 2-2. Nuno Mendes also becomes the protagonist in the defensive phase, when at 23 ‘he barred the road to Pedri with a providential intervention in a slip on a right -handed tank of the Barcelona midfielder. The red furies try again in the 38th minute when the newly entered Isco warms up his hands to Diogo Costa with a right from outside who the extreme defender raises in the corner. Thus end the 90 minutes, it goes to extra time. At the start, the usual Nuno Mendes goes to the band and serves in the seedo center, which chokes too much with the accident and sends out, frustrating an excellent opportunity. It will be the only emotion of the first 15 minutes. In the second part of the extra time, the occasions have lactitically. You go to penalties for the second consecutive year. Morata’s mistake in the fourth series from 11 meters is decisive from the spot. To deliver the success to the Portuguese is the network of Ruben Neves, which gives its second Nations League to its history.
