2021 is here and the Euro cup is almost knocking at the door. Euro fever will start running in the vein of football fans around the globe, just few more weeks to start the world-class show.
The UEFA Euro 2016 tournament witnessed several significant events in world football. From the rise of France as one of the superpowers of world football to Wales and Icelandβs dream run as underdogs, the UEFA Euro 2016 saw the beginning of many new things. But, amongst them, probably the most significant was Portugal lifting the trophy. This was the first international trophy for Cristiano Ronaldo who though didnβt have much impact with his goal tally but proved to be instrumental in leading the side.
Portugal: 2016 Euro Cup Champion
Portugal was the most undermining champions in the recent history of the Euros. They drew all of their matches in group stages to progress into the last 16. Before the finals, They managed to win only one match in the whole tournament in regulation time which was against Wales in the semi-finals. This showed extreme grit and character from the team who fought till the final whistle to grind out victories.
France 2 - 1 Ireland ( Brady 2'; Griezzman 57', 60' )

Wales, a Rugby-loving nation had never appeared in a football tournament since the 1958 World-Cup where they reached the quarter-finals. But, The Wales 2016 team was a squad which wanted to make it big, despite being in the midst of European big boys.
Though Wales didnβt manage to win the tournament, this result had a huge impact on their footballing approach. They took the game more seriously and as a result, new players came up through the ranks making them one of the top tier sides of Europe. Currently, They are in an excellent developing process and are very prominent in the European footballing radar.
