Match Report: France 0-0 Portugal UEFA Nations League

Despite a hugely impressive array of attacking player on the Stade de France pitch tonight, it was the defence for both sides who dominated tonight’s contest.

A draw in Paris will be a sweeter result for Fernando Santos and despite his France side dominating the second half, ‘Les Bleus’ carved very little in terms of clear cut scoring chances.

In fact Portugal could have snatched maximum points in added time as Hugo Lloris had to be at his best to stop a ferocious Cristiano Ronaldo left footed drive.

The draw sees the European champions retain their lead at the top of the group with Portugal set to face Sweden next whilst France travel to Croatia.
