Portugal faces off against France in the quarter-finals, promising a battle of football giants with intriguing storylines on both sides.

Portugal, led by the prolific Cristiano Ronaldo, navigated a tense Round of 16 encounter against Slovenia, prevailing in a nerve-wracking penalty shootout where goalkeeper Diogo Costa emerged as the hero with three saves.

Despite their resilient journey to a record seventh Euros quarter-final, Portugal faces a formidable challenge in France, against whom they have struggled historically, losing 11 of their last 14 meetings.

France, meanwhile, secured their spot in the quarters with a narrow 1-0 victory over Belgium, relying on defensive solidity with five clean sheets in their last six matches.

However, their attack has been less potent, with no goals from open play by their own players so far in the tournament, highlighting a reliance on defensive prowess and set-pieces.

Key players to keep an eye on include Kylian Mbappé, who despite wearing a protective mask due to a broken nose, aims to leave his mark after a relatively quiet tournament by his standards.

Bruno Fernandes, Portugal’s midfield maestro, boasts a perfect record when scoring for his country and will be crucial in unlocking France’s resolute defense.

Both teams enter the match with contrasting strengths and weaknesses, setting the stage for a tactical duel that could hinge on moments of individual brilliance or defensive resilience.

As the battle unfolds in Germany, expect a match filled with drama and intensity as Portugal seeks to overcome historical odds against a defensively stout French side aiming for their third Euros semi-final appearance in four tournaments.
