UEFA Nations League semi-finals.

Portugal showed dominance in the knockout stages despite losing. Cristiano Ronaldo's team secured a ticket to the final despite falling behind against hosts Germany at the Allianz Arena.

No one gave up on anyone in the fight to reach the final on Wednesday night. The first half of the game was goalless due to attack and counterattack. There were three goals in the second half. In the 48th minute, Florian Witze gave the Germans a dream. Francisco Conceica broke that dream in the 63rd minute. In the 68th minute, CR7 handled the rest of the work with a record-breaking goal.

Germany dominated the opening minutes of the match at the Allianz Arena. In the first 20 minutes, Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa made two great saves, including a powerful shot from Leon Goretzka. Portugal's big chance came just after the break. Ronaldo stepped up to take a shot from a great cross from Nuno Mendes, but the ball went wide.

Germany took the lead immediately

after that disappointment. Florian Wurtz headed in a perfect pass from Joshua Kimmich. Although VAR doubted the goal, the referee upheld the decision on the field. Francisco came on for Portugal in the 63rd minute to equalize the match. Ronaldo finally scored the winning goal in the 68th minute. The top scorer in international football made no mistake in scoring from a pass from Nuno Mendes.

Ronaldo also set a record as the oldest player to score against Germany. At the same time, the country's curse was lifted. Ronaldo had lost to Germany in all five previous matches. And Portugal defeated Germany for the first time since 2000. Ronaldo's goal gave Portugal victory over Germany after 25 years.

That once again confirms the Nations

League final. The Portuguese will face either France or Spain on the title stage. Tonight is the final ticket-winning match between the two semi-finalists. The title-sharing game will be held on June 9 at the Allianz Arena.
