Teams from France and Portugal turned a boring draw 0: 0 in a match of the third day of League A of the League of Nations. The fans were ready for a real show, but both teams were very careful.

The start of the match was quiet, as both teams took a waiting position, and the first attack attempts were too timid and did not lead to anything serious.
In the 17th minute we finally witnessed a more dangerous situation. Paul Pogba headed, then the ball reached Killian Mbape, but the referee ruled an ambush and stopped the actions of the “roosters”.

The Portuguese responded with a good performance by Bruno Fernandes from a free kick, but the rival defense stopped the threatening flight of the ball.
In the 24th minute came the first best opportunity for the guests. Cristiano Ronaldo hit a deflected ball in the penalty area, but Luca Hernández reacted immediately and protected his goal.

Soon after, Nelson Semedo came close to scoring, but his attempt went off the right post and the ball went out of play.
After half an hour of play, Antoine Griezmann shot hard at Portugal’s door, but Rui Patricio caught.
At the end of the first half, Joao Félix missed a great opportunity to open the scoring after receiving a good cross from a free kick, but his game went to the side of the right post.

The ‘Gallos’ came out transformed and only two minutes after the resumption of the game Mbape had the opportunity to take his advantage, but he did not play in the best way and wasted the opportunity.
After the explosive start of the second half, boredom returned to settle in the Stade de France. In the 74th minute, a goal was finally scored, but Pepe’s goal was disallowed by an ambush.
In the closing seconds of the match, Ronaldo missed the opportunity to once again become a hero for his team, as his powerful blow ended up in the hands of Hugo Loris.
What a generational overlap 🤩#FRAPOR pic.twitter.com/CuL4VKWhUR
