5 July 2006 Munich POR:FRA 0:1 (0:1)


Ahhh... and I thought Portugal could at last reach the finals after they sent England packing. Again, Zinedine Yazid Zidane stepped up to the penalty spot, for another shot at glory for himself and France. He converted the kick in the 33rd minute after Ricardo Carvalho was whistled for a foul on Thierry Henry, giving the French a 1-0 victory over Portugal and a place in the World Cup final. The win ended Portugal’s 19-game unbeaten streak and Luiz Felipe Scolari’s 12-game undefeated in World Cup matches.
