Episode Notes

Portugal and France will face each other in the Quarter-Finals of EURO 2024 after both came through their Round of 16 ties in dramatic fashion. France left it late against Belgium, as Jan Vertonghen’s own-goal was the difference between the two nations. Later, the first match of the tournament to go to extra time saw Jan Oblak save a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty, but it was Portugal who ultimately prevailed in the penalty shootout thanks to the heroics of their own goalkeeper Diogo Costa. Plus, our reporters help us preview Romania v Netherlands and Austria v Turkiye, as we hear from Cody Gakpo Razvan Marin and Christoph Baumgartner.
