Portugal Defeats Netherlands To Win Maiden Nations League

Following an impressive 3-1 win over Switzerland in the semi-final with all goals supplied by Juventus superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal secured Nations League glory on Sunday.

This time, it was through a solitary 60th-minute effort by Goncalo Guedes after Ronaldo succeeded in dragging Netherlands defence anchored by the impressive Virgil van Dijk and Matthijs de Ligt.

Having been touted favourites ahead of the inaugural Finals, Portugal lived up to that billing in Porto, adding more major silverware to their European Championship triumph three years ago.

Guedes, who exchanged passes with Bernardo Silva, smashed home from the edge of the box and tried as they did, Netherlands couldn’t find a way back.
