After sharing the spoil in a
normal time,Portugal
defeated Poland 5-3 on penalties last night after playing a 1-1 draw in normal
time to advance to the semi-final of Euro 2016. Lewandowski first opened the
scoring in the early stage of the first half with a crisp finish before 18 year
old Renato Sanchez equalized for Portugal.
Ronaldo
had two good chances to win the game for his country but fluffed his lines
resulting in a penalty shootout after extra-time. Ronaldo scored the first
goal, Lewandowski scored his for Poland . The next four penalties were
converted by both sides, before Blaszczykowski's missed from 12 yards leaving
Quaresma to place the ball in the net and carry Portugal to the semi-final
where they will meet either Wales or Belgium.
