Champions Day

 

Record-breaker, Cristiano Ronaldo slotting the third goal of Portugal's goals against Hungary (0-3). 

In a record fifth European Championship, Cristiano Ronaldo overtook Michel Platini's competition record to become the all-time leading goalscorer. A thoroughly deserving victory by the champions against opponents who transformed themselves into a red bus for the entire match. Contrary to some reports, this score utterly represented the game. There is always the risk when playing defensive football; you can concede and when you do you can't get the accolades. In the morning's other game, France beat Germany 3-0, no wait...VAR...
1-0; two glorious French goals were correctly disallowed, but as it was against the Germans one could argue that they should have stood. Germany pushed but the French seemed to have things under control in this one 'tournament winning football' Aloisi. Both Champions are now up and running, great stuff.

End of Round 1 games and Evie holds her lead from Stylianos and Angelique.
