The tension boiled over in the 68th minute when FC Nantes 1943 finally broke the deadlock, sending their fans into a frenzy. However, Portugal, ever the masters of the unexpected, managed to scramble an equalizer in the 74th minute, proving that even a broken clock is right twice a day. It was a brief moment of hope for the Portuguese side, who seemed far more interested in the referee's pocket—earning two yellow cards—than actually threatening the opposition's goal with any real intent.

In the 90th minute, they hammered home the winner, sealing a 1-2 victory that felt as inevitable as it was deserved.
