France looked to have the upper-hand throughout normal time, but Griezmann, who had been so deadly in front of goal prior to yesterday's final, missed a couple of guilt edge chances and it proved not to be his night.
France on any other night would have scored at least once given their possession and shots on target during the 120 minutes however, Portugal keeper Rui Patricio proved to be their downfall and he was brilliant throughout denying the hosts on numerous occasions with a string of world class saves.
