It also comes a day after violence broke out in the Europa Conference League game between Nice and Cologne. SOUNDBITE
Portugal gatecrashed France's Euro 2016 party to win the European Championship for the first time in its history and all this without leading star Cristiano Ronaldo. A super strike by substitute Edér was the difference between the two teams, who both hit the hit woodwork during the match.
