Portugal is the first national team in history to win the Nations League twice and what an emotional moment for Cristiano Ronaldo!

40 years old on February 5, 938 goals in his entire career, of which 138 for the Portuguese national team in 221 appearances.

Spain declared themselves defeated, although they led twice (1-0 and 2-1). After 90 minutes it was 2-2. Zubimenti opened the scoring in the 21st minute, but Nuno Mendes quickly equalized, after just 5 minutes. Just before half-time, Oyarzabal was served perfectly by Pedri and placed the ball easily past Diogo Costa. Spain went into the break with a one-goal advantage.

After the break, Roberto Martinez changed the right wing, unhappy with Joao Neves and Francisco Conceicao. Ruben Neves and Nelson Semedo came on and Portugal were back in the game. Ronaldo equalizes in the 61st minute, and the match does not offer any more great opportunities until the end. In the 88th minute Cristiano lies down on the ground, halfway through the field, and asks for a substitution. He did his job, taking the team to extra time.

After 120 minutes, the score remains tied and it comes to penalties. At 4-3 for Portugal, Morata shoots, Costa saves. Ruben Neves is the last for the Portuguese and beats flawlessly to the right of Unai Simon, who was fooled by the trick.

The fiesta starts at the Allianz Arena, where 65,800 souls watched a match in earnest!
