They have not happened of the tie, in a clash in which, although the ones of Luis Enrique dominated the balloon, left a lot of interrogantes of face to the Eurocopa of this summer.

The Red has not showed consistent and, with the balloon permanently, remained withl to feeling that it could do much more in front of the group luso, led by 'CR7'. In the first time, the Spaniards did not achieve to finish to the three sticks of Rui Patricio and carried a big fright with a goal of Fonte, that finished being cancelled by a previous fault of the Portuguese to Pau Torres. The central had supported the arms on the player of the Villarreal.

Busquets, in way captain, went the only player of the FC Barcelona that it was to title in the party. After the hour of party, Pedri went in to substitute to Thiago and Eric García to Pau Torres, whereas 'Busi' abandoned the field. Spain tried to take a step forward, but remained in the attempt in front of a much more active and dangerous Portugal every time that had the balloon.

One of the clearest opportunities for the ones of Fernando Santos arrived before the triple change of Luis Enrique, with a played led by Cristiano, that desbordó by the right band, centred to the small area and Diogo Jota, bothered by Llorente, commands his high head butt, winning a corner that did not take advantage of to open the marker.

The two selections looked for the goal

Before the 70, Bruno Fernandes bounced a direct fault and Cristiano Ronaldo had in his head the so much of the Portuguese. His shot left by very little. Spain tried to react and, after a centre of Sarabia, Morata neither Ferran achieved to finish, although they were in mouth of goal.

The visitors went back to the attack, in the minute 78, and complicated again to the Spanish defensive saga. They achieved a contragolpe spectacular that finished with a centre to the second stick for a volley of Rafa Silva that finished very diverted. The Red, trying untiringly achieve a goal, went back to add to the attack with Morata like protagonist.

Marcos Llorente desbordó and sent a centre that Álvaro Morata tried to finish of heel, but did not reach him to mark. The played followed and a centre raso from the left was not taken advantage of by the forward of the Juventus, that launched to the floor and did not achieve to hunt the spherical. In the 82, Cristiano, that wanted his goal, remained only, but his control with the head left very long.

Spain had an oprtunidad very clear after a fault of Koke, that put with power, did not touch it anybody and poisoned to the goal and Rui Patricio signed the paradón of the party, taking out a big hand down to save to his team. In the last played, Morata planted only in front of the guardameta Portuguese, but his launching went to the crossbar so that the party finished in tables.
