Euro 2024; Breathtaking victory of Portugal against Slovenia
After a 0-0 draw during the game, Portugal's national football team managed to beat Slovenia 3-0 with the brilliance of Diego Costa in the penalty shootout and reach the quarter-finals.
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): In the round of 16 of the Euro 2024 tournament, Portugal and Slovenia faced each other at the Frankfurt Arena stadium, and finally, after a goalless draw in regular time and two halves of overtime, Portugal won in the shootout. Penalty resulted in a 3-0 victory.

The game started with Portugal's advantage in possession of the ball, but Roberto Martinez's team was unable to create chances and could not threaten the opponent's goal. This caused the game to be played in a way without excitement and situation.

In the 13th minute, Bruno Fernandez's shot went wide of Oblak's goal.
In the following, we did not see another chance in the game until Ronaldo's fantastic shot on the free kick went dangerously over the top of the goal.

About 10 minutes later, Palinia's beautiful shot hit the post of Slovenia's goal and was then deflected to end the first half without a goal.

In the second half, the game started without chances and even though Portugal had the game completely in hand, there was no news of a serious situation or a threat to the opponent's goal.

In the 61st minute, Slovenia's first serious chance was created, where Sesko went one-on-one with the goalkeeper but his shot went wide.

10 minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo had a free kick, but his shot went over the top of the goal again.

In the rest of the second half, there was no news of another chance and this game ended in a goalless draw in regular time, so that the task of the promoted team was extended to extra time.

The overtime started slowly and without any particular speed. In this half, Portugal had several half-and-half opportunities, but until the end of the half, they could not create a serious opportunity. In the final seconds, after Jota was brought down in the penalty area, the referee showed the penalty spot, but Cristiano Ronaldo could not convert this shot into a goal and Jan Oblak saved the ball with a beautiful reaction and with the help of the vertical post.

In the second overtime, the two teams played cautiously and we did not see a chance until the 115th minute, due to Pepe's big mistake, Sesko was one-on-one with Diego Costa, but the goalkeeper prevented the Slovenian striker from scoring with a beautiful save. Nothing else happened in the remaining five minutes and the game went to penalty kicks.

In the penalty shootout, in a rare incident, Diego Costa saved Slovenia's first three penalties, and on the other side, Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandez and Bernardo Silva converted their penalties and Portugal reached the quarterfinals.

In another game, the teams of France and Belgium faced each other. The tense and exciting match between Belgium and France was followed by a goalless draw until the 85th minute, when a shot by Kolo Moani, the substitute player of the Roosters, hit Jan Vertonghen's foot and entered the Belgian goal. France won the game with this single goal and advanced to the quarter final stage of Euro 2024.
