Thursday Football
FOOTBALL! It's back! After an unbearable few days without Euro 2016 action, today's the first quarter final:
Poland vs Portugal (20:00, ITV1)
Some interesting facts:
- Cristiano Ronaldo has attempted 40 direct free-kicks at major tournaments with Portugal but is yet to score with any of these efforts. Bale>Ronaldo
- Poland have never scored more than one goal in a single game at a Euros in 10 matches. Expect that to change tonight?
- Portugal have played the most games (32) in the history of the European Championships without ever winning the tournament. Is this their year? No.
- Jakub Blaszczykowski has been directly involved in all five of Poland's goals in the past two Euro tournaments (three goals, two assists). Who needs Lewandowski?
