UEFA Euro 2016 Final The UEFA Euro 2016 Final was a football match that took place on 10 July 2016 at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, France, to determine the winners of UEFA Euro 2016.[5] Portugal defeated the hosts and two-time winners France 1â€“0 after extra time, with a goal from substitute Eder, to claim its first major tournament title.[6] In doing so, they became the tenth nation to win the UEFA European Championship, 12 years after losing their first final at home in 2004.[7] France became the second host team to lose the final, after Portugal in 2004, and suffered their first defeat at a major tournament hosted in the country since the 1960 European Nations' Cup third-place playoff against Czechoslovakia.[1] This was the fifth European Championship final to end in a draw after 90 minutes of play, and the second whose winners were decided by extra time, after the inaugural final in 1960.
2016 FA Cup Final Crystal Palace took the lead in the 78th minute when Jason Puncheon brought the ball down from a ball played into the penalty box by Joel Ward and cut in on the left before firing past David de Gea at his near post with his left foot. Manager Alan Pardew celebrated this goal by doing a dance on the touchline[21] It was 1â€“1 in the 81st minute when Juan Mata scored from ten yards out with a low shot from the left after a chest down from Marouane Fellaini after a cross from Wayne Rooney on the right, with the ball taking a slight deflection and going through the legs of Joel Ward on the goal line.[22] The match went to extra-time and just before the end of the first period, Chris Smalling was sent-off for a tackle on Yannick Bolasie near the halfway line. With 10 minutes to go Jesse Lingard scored the winner for Man Utd with a right foot volley from inside the penalty area which flew past Wayne Hennessey before he could move.[23]
