Portugal beats Spain to win The Nations league
Portugal defeated Spain in penalty kicks 5- 3 to win the UEFA Nations League final late on Sunday after both sides failed to score in extra time following a showdown that ended 2-2. After Nuno Mendes, Bruno Fernandes, Vitinha, and Goncalo Ramos all smoothly scored their penalties, Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa saved Spain's Álvaro Morata's spot kick before Neves converted his team's fifth to seal the win. The win marks the second Nations League trophy for Portugal after lifting the inaugural edition in 2019. Its victory against Spain, the reigning European champions, was hard-fought, as the Seleção had come back twice from behind. Cristiano Ronaldo sent the match to extra time when he equalised in the 61st minute with his record-extending 138th goal for Portugal. The 40-year-old Ronaldo went off to a standing ovation and a hug from coach Roberto Martínez in the 88th. The keenly contested final seemed destined for Spain after Mikel Oyarzabal had given Spain a 2-1 halftime lead. Oyarzabal squeezed the ball past Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa in the 45th minute after Pedri played him through on goal. It was also Spain who drew the first blood after Martin Zubimendi broke the deadlock in the 21st minute with a tap-in when Portugal's defence failed to deal with Lamine Yamal's cross. Five minutes later, Portugal responded with Nuno Mendes levelling by drilling a low shot inside the far post. Lamine Yamal, the Spanish sensation and favourite to win the Ballon d'Or, was mostly marked out of the game by Portugal full-back Mendes, ensuring Yamal could pose no major threat before being subbed off in extra time. Earlier on Sunday, Kylian Mbappé led France to defeat host Germany 2-0 in Stuttgart, securing third place. The Real Madrid forward helped Les Bleus bounce back from a sluggish first half by scoring one goal and setting up another for Michael Olise. The goal was Mbappe's 50th for France in international competition.

📝 Shock defeat for 'U' in the Copa Chile
The 'Romantic Traveler' was defeated 2-1 by Curicó Unido in the first leg of the round of 16 of the domestic competition. It was not a good performance by Universidad de Chile against Curicó Unido at the Estadio Huachipato CAP-Acero, where they lost the first leg of the round of 16 by 2-1 in a match where it became evident that the absences hit Gustavo Álvarez's team. Advertisement The 'Blues', with eleven absences due to call-ups for the senior national team and the U-20, as well as the injury of Charles Aránguiz, took control of the match at the start, but Diego Rojas assisted Nicolás Fernández to establish the 1-0 in favor of the 'Torteros' after half an hour of play. The home team did not take their foot off the gas and Cristián Bustamante appeared completely free in the area to extend the lead and spark celebrations on Héctor Almandoz's bench before the end of the first half. Indeed, near halftime, the 'U' reacted with a penalty converted by Leandro Fernández. There was also a penalty for the Curicó team, but Bustamante's shot went wide. Advertisement Gustavo Álvarez made several changes at halftime, and his team improved with the entry of Rodrigo Contreras, although they almost suffered more goals from their rival's counterattacks in the second half. Universidad de Chile couldn't avoid the defeat and is now obliged to win by at least two goals in the rematch to be played this Wednesday, June 11, at the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos.
