Despite going into the break at a disadvantage, the Portuguese forced extra time, where <strong>Diogo Costa was a hero by stopping the fourth penalty<\/strong> of the series.<\/p>  <p><strong>In their fourth consecutive continental final (third in the Nations League)<\/strong>, La Roja failed to maintain their European hegemony in a match where they had more possession. Spain was better in the first half, but Portugal reacted in the second half.<\/p>  <p>In extra time there was not too much strength or clarity in both teams to break the tie, product of the fatigue of an inclement season. In the penalties, Portugal prevailed by 5-3, with <strong>\u00c1lvaro Morata failing in the series<\/strong> for La Roja.<\/p>  <h2>Spain, to the rhythm of Pedri, went with advantage to the rest<\/h2>  <p><strong><a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/tags\/pedri\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/tags\/pedri\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/player\/pedri.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Pedri - \u00faltimas noticias del mediocentro del Bar\u00e7a\">Pedri Gonz\u00e1lez<\/a> had the first clear chance for La Roja in the 16th minute<\/strong>, with a placed shot that went slightly wide. The Canary Islander had received a good pass from Nico Williams from the left, the side where Portugal suffered the most in the first half.<\/p>  <p>With the Bar\u00e7a midfielder setting the tempo of the match, <strong>in the 21st minute the scoring would be opened thanks to a goal by Mart\u00edn Zubimendi<\/strong>. The Basque led a lethal start, gave way to Lamine Yamal and, after the &#8217;19&#8217;s chipped cross, the ball was loose near the small area. Free of mark, the Real Sociedad youth player defined at will before Diogo Costa.<\/p>  <p><strong>Portugal reacted quickly with a goal from Nuno Mendes in the 26th minute<\/strong>, in a controversial action preceded by a possible previous offside of Cristiano Ronaldo. Despite the blow, Spain maintained control of possession and, just before the break, Pedri rubbed the lamp to return the advantage to the Selecci\u00f3n.<\/p>  <p>After an error in the start of Bernardo Silva, <strong>Le Normand gave the ball to the Tenerife player, who waited for the diagonal of Mikel Oyarzabal<\/strong> to filter a perfect pass that the Basque striker defined to a touch before the departure of Costa.<\/p>  <h2>Cristiano Ronaldo equalized the final in the complement<\/h2>  <div class=\"media media-image\" data-ck-asset-wrapper=\"\"> <div class=\"media-item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cristiano Ronaldo, celebrating the equalizing goal with Portugal \" data-id=\"1498947\" data-resize=\"9\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/06\/fcbn-4bc0a2cab20336ee83d21693e096142c.jpeg\" title=\"Cristiano Ronaldo, celebrating the equalizing goal with Portugal \" width=\"1000\"><div class=\"media-title\">Cristiano Ronaldo, celebrating the equalizing goal with Portugal<\/div> <\/div> <\/div>  <p>After the break, Portugal took control of the match, pressing much higher with Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva.

However, the decisive clash in Munich had to be defined in extra time.<\/p>  <h2>The penalties gave the Nations League to Portugal<\/h2>  <p>At the beginning of the first half of extra time, <strong>De la Fuente put Pedro Porro and \u00c1lex Baena for Mingueza and Nico Williams<\/strong>.
