00:00.
00:05.
00:10.
00:13Up the way at the Munich Arena.
00:16Sparks about to fly.
00:19Immediately a first aerial victory for
00:24Robert Lewin against Cristiano Ronaldo.
00:31Bruno Fernandes.
00:34Just sat up in front of John Eves.
00:37Spanish defender had hit the deck.
00:39Had that gone in I'm sure it would have come into consideration.
00:43But John Eves who's never scored an international goal
00:47with the first opportunity of this final.
00:50It's a golden chance as well.
00:52But his quarterback picks up the wide receiver,
00:55Nico Williams.
00:56This is Pedri.
00:58Oh, he just opened his body as if he was going to pick his spot.
01:02That is a glorious opportunity for the Barcelona midfielder.
01:07Zubimendi to Jamal.
01:10Back into the Dijero area.
01:13And it's not been dealt with by John Eves.
01:16And Spade are in to pounce.
01:19Martin Zubimendi.
01:21It's only his second ever international goal.
01:26There's so many Spanish players swarming for him.
01:28Eventually, the ball is going to be tucked home.
01:31Clever.
01:32Nuno Mendes.
01:33The first.
01:34He normally provides them for others.
01:45Nuno Mendes takes center stage.
01:48It's the first ever international goal of his career.
01:53It's an absolute stunner.
01:56Yeah, I'll be looking at that.
01:57But once the ball is played back to Nuno Mendes,
01:59Nuno Mendes, no one in a yellow shirt really steps out and engages with him.
02:03You see him just stepping forward.
02:04Everyone's watching the ball.
02:05No one's dealing with it.
02:06And once he just moves that ball, it's too easy for him to strike the ball across goal.
02:11It's a wonderful strike.
02:12It's clean.
02:13It's composed.
02:14Goalkeeper, no chance.
02:15But defensively, not really good enough from Spain.
02:18But brilliant reaction from Portugal.
02:19Oyezamos!
02:20Slips it in beyond Diogo Costa.
02:21In the blink of an eye, Spain break from inside their own half to the Portuguese penalty
02:39area.
02:40And the man who scored the winning goal in the Euro 2024 final last year.
02:47And defensively, that is an absolute nightmare.
02:49If you don't know what's going on behind you, you're in big trouble.
02:52But the finish as well is absolutely sublime.
02:55He sees where the goalkeeper is and just dinks it past him.
02:58He is a sensational striker.
03:00He has a habit of scoring in big games.
03:02Wonderful movement.
03:03Brilliant finish.
03:08This is Ruben Diaz.
03:12Ruben Fernandes.
03:13Oh, he's done really well here to get it back from Petroneta!
03:16Bruno Fernandes offside, however.
03:22As the ball came back to him, he was in an offside position.
03:27Well, his finish is absolutely stunning.
03:34And that ball is, I think, flicked forward.
03:39Is that where the problem is?
03:40But he catches the goalkeeper out quite brilliantly, just whipping it in the near post.
03:45That's pretty much a different lead they hold tonight.
03:49Again, Nuno Mendes away from Laminya Mal.
03:52And it's really...
03:53He waited.
03:54He bided his time.
03:55He believed that the chance would come.
03:58Well, next stop goal scorer is Serbius.
03:59Alexander Mitrovic at 15.
04:00And Bernal has now joined him as Petri.
04:01Looks to get Spain in front again.
04:02And it's a brilliant buck by Nuno Mendes.
04:03Who's having a quite brilliant night for Portugal.
04:04Well, Petri doesn't have the pace to run away from defenders.
04:05He's got a twist and turn.
04:06Brilliant defending from the left back though.
04:07Subimendi tried to do just that.
04:09Here is Isco.
04:11Great attempt.
04:14And the chance would come.
04:16And the chance would come.
04:17Next stop goal scorer is Serbius.
04:19Alexander Mitrovic at 15.
04:20And Bernal has now joined him as Petri.
04:22Looks to get Spain in front again.
04:24And it's a brilliant buck by Nuno Mendes.
04:26Who's having a quite brilliant night for Portugal.
04:28Well, Petri doesn't have the pace to run away from defenders.
04:30He's got a twist and turn.
04:31Brilliant defending from the left back though.
04:32Subimendi tried to do just that.
04:34Here is Isco.
04:35Great attempt.
04:37But what a save.
04:40Diogo Costa.
04:42Keeps the game at 2-2.
04:47Isco.
04:48Surely offside.
04:49Oyedabo will play on.
04:51Oh!
04:52Acrobatically saved by Renato Vega.
04:55There's no way he would have counted anyway.
04:57But he had to be sure.
04:59He's clearly offside.
05:01Zambolis flit goals with the defender.
05:03Instincts kick in.
05:04Defends brilliantly.
05:10Yabau.
05:12That's it.
05:13The final action of 90 minutes.
05:15Extra time.
05:20Nuno Mendes has been a joy to watch this evening.
05:22Oh, he's in around the back again.
05:24Fed by Leao.
05:25And just off target from Nelson Semedo.
05:31Never scored an international goal.
05:35Bruno Fernandes hoisting it in.
05:39There's no one on the edge of the six yard box to finish.
05:41Paella clearing for Spain.
05:43Back in by Pedro Neto.
05:44And the diving header from Nuno Mendes.
05:48It wouldn't have counted.
05:49He was offside.
05:52Very strong.
05:53Oh, dear.
05:54Now, hang on.
05:55What's happening here?
05:56Diogo Costa's heart was in his mouth for a moment there.
06:01I'm sure for the goalkeeper, when he strikes it, he thinks that's nowhere near.
06:04But the more the ball travels, the goalkeeper gets more and more nervous.
06:09The referee blows the whistle.
06:15And 120 minutes of football to decide who takes home the trophy.
06:23This is the UEFA Nations League final in Munich.
06:26And it has come down to this.
06:28And Salo Ramos scores!
06:40An emphatic start for the Portuguese.
06:44I always feel it's slightly risky when you go for power, when you go down the middle.
06:50Marino!
06:521-1.
06:54The perfect response from Spain's point of view.
06:58That's a beautiful penalty.
06:59It's whipped, side netting.
07:05Vitinha!
07:07Strikes with conviction!
07:09There's that slow approach.
07:11And then he just quickens up as he strikes the ball.
07:17Another penalty of the highest quality.
07:20Four successful kicks out of four.
07:23As this Nations League final remains in the balance.
07:28Portugal keep their noses in front.
07:34Pressure.
07:36What pressure!
07:38To level things up again.
07:41But I'll tell you what, Diogo Costa got a glove to that.
07:453-3.
07:46I think we could hear the slap, the keeper did get something on it, just couldn't keep it out.
07:53Short run up.
07:55But a scintillating finish.
07:58And Portugal lead again.
08:00And it's sold by Diogo Costa.
08:01The first missed penalty of the shootout.
08:13Portugal have won the Nations League final for 2025.
08:17Since Euro 2016, they have flirted with glory.
08:18Tonight, Portugal are bringing it home again.
08:30You have to admire their resilience, their quality.
08:31Not many people really expect them to beat Germany, let alone beat Spain in the final.
08:40And they have shown.
08:41It's not the amount of ball that you have.
08:42It's, again, can you stick the ball in the back of the net?
08:43You see what it means to a player who's won absolutely everything?
08:44This is what winning things for your country means.
08:45Still won it.
08:46Still leading.
08:47Still believing.
08:48Cristiano Ronaldo.
08:49Cristiano Ronaldo.
08:50A winner once again.
08:51It's a goal.
08:52That sees them so well.
08:53Not many people really expect them to beat Germany, let alone beat Spain in the final.
08:54And they have shown.
08:55It's not the amount of ball that you have.
08:56It's, again, can you stick the ball in the back of the net?
08:58You see what it means to a player who's won absolutely everything?
09:01This is what winning things for your country means.
09:04Still won it.
09:05Still leading.
09:06Still believing.
09:08Cristiano Ronaldo.
09:11A winner once again.
09:14Portugal.
09:15But sees them celebrate.
09:19Power.
09:20Panache.
09:21A Portuguese story is not about potential.
09:28Portugal are the Nations League winners for 2025.
09:44Attaching the faith to the future, but that's all.
09:45It's a great idea of what people expect from us to do.
09:49Like, you can imagine.
09:50In addition, a threat of a web to the place tonight as well.
09:51You can't stop.
09:52This is the future.
09:53This is easily found.
09:54It's a great idea of what people expect.
09:55You don't expect people to be in a place.
09:56I think who are a δια藏.
09:57You want to get paid to that, but you still agree on what people expect.
09:58You don't expect them to get yourself.
09:59You don't expect them to be in the place.
10:01You don't expect them to get married.
10:02You don't expect them to be in the stream.
10:03You don't expect them to be in the stream.
10:05You can't be in front of this.
10:06You don't expect them to be in your own way.
