European champions against world champions are the motto on Wednesday evening in Group F when Portugal and France face each other. After the 1-0 win against Germany and the draw against Hungary (1: 1), the French are already qualified for the round of 16. Cristiano Ronaldo & Co. need a draw to have the ticket for the round of 16 safely in their pockets. In the event of a defeat, Portugal (three points) could in the worst case slip to fourth place.

Your midfielders will push forward from below. You have three very agile strikers and two midfielders who attack from relative Can stage far back. Sometimes even Kanté initiates the attacks. “
Antoine Griezmann (France forward, via uefa.com): “The game is like a final, but I think we have to go about it like the last two games. We have to prepare well and then see tactically how we can make it difficult for them. The stadium will be full again and I’m happy to be playing in this atmosphere. “
