Not Iceland's, though.
Final: Portugal vs France

Want France to win, have a sneaky feeling Portugal are gonna Nick it though
People calling the clapping thing Icelands is almost as annoying as when Man City nicked the Poznan.
As bad as Portugal have been, saying France should destroy is unrealistic. It'll be close, only 1 goal will separate both teams if it doesn't get to penalties.
whos is it?
Yep, a 120th minute backheel from Éder will give us the European title.
That would be pretty epic.
Please, if you're going to win it, let it be by another player than Eder. I think I would stop watching football for an entire if it happens.According to the Metro, "Motherwell supporters reportedly used the chant in a game against the Icelandic side Stjarnan when the two teams met in the qualifying rounds of the Europa League in 2014". It was done against an Icelandic side, so you can see why it circulated to the National Team.

Ronaldo, like Messi, deserves an international trophy. Very much rooting for Portugal - although I'm pretty sure France will win in 90 minutes.
Why? If he can't do it, he doesn't deserve it. As simple as that.
Personally, I would like a goal from Renato and/or from Eliseu, but it really doesn't matter. As long as we finally win it, I'll be happy.
Anyway, let's hope for a nice final and may the better team win!
Hope France win it as they have two United players,and Evra whose heart is still here.
Portugal have two former United players but I haven't really cared much for either since they left.

I hope Portugal win but everything is pointing towards a French victory. Honestly I think France could win this 2 or 3 nil.
Can you own a chant? For the purposes of this discussion they've clearly stolen it from the Icelandic fans and it's definitely a bit cringey.
Eliseu? I personally hope he doesn't play at all.Happy with Raphael
I'm rooting for France. The thought of Ronaldo posing and acting like *he* won the cup if Portugal nick it, and not his team, is just too hard to stomach.
Wouldn't mind a cracking goal from Sanches, though.

Would be great if Evra finishes his international career as a champion of Europe. 
So, I'm cheering for France of course, but it'll be tough game, surely.

But anyway France please win it.

Unpredictable game.
It's a final, so both teams will be cautious.
On the other hand, Ronaldo and Griezmann on their day can create a goal out of nothing...

I hope Portugal win, partly for Ronaldo but also so there a new team winning a major international trophy. Portugal have had many great players through the years but never won anything as well.
It's not going to be so one sided in terms of support as Portugal have lots of immigrants in France
And it may continue until that conceited ponce retires.
If it somehow went to penalties, I would love it for Cristiano to score the winner.
Could you please just go, and die a silent death?If it somehow went to penalties, I would love it for Cristiano to score the winner.
And if he doesn't score, a retirement?If it somehow went to penalties, I would love it for Cristiano to score the winner.
You really captured the atmosphere there.
Is this ironic ?
I have a car and i could go on the Champs Elysées but i'm tired, i captured what i could capture
Classic portugal to turn up now, france are by far the better squad, but ronaldo can win you a game.
Please France, please.
What is classical Portugal though?
I just want this tournament to be done with. Boring shite for a month. Would rather take a break before the real football returns.
But yeah, France should win it. Portugal will win it.

Will France stick with Sissoko and 4-2-3-1 or go with Kane and 4-3-3
Just busting your balls, man. Congrats on the win.Is this ironic ?

I'm no fan of Sissoko but they surely have no reason to mess about with what has worked?
Can't believe Portugal have managed to make their way to this final. Nothing special (besides the obvious player). And I've a weird feeling they'll do it too. I'd actually like to see Ronaldo win an international tournament tbf.
Both teams and fans can be insufferable. i was hoping Germany was going to win it just for the party their fans would have.
They also have had the easiest run of any teams in the tournament

Yeah, I think he'll keep the same system and if by chance France needs to defend a lead, he will use Kante.
