On July 6 at 03:00, the quarterfinal match of the European Championship saw Portugal face France. At halftime, the score was tied 0-0.
This also marked the fourth consecutive match in this Euro tournament where France has ended the first half without scoring against their opponents. Apart from taking a lead in the opening group stage match thanks to an own goal by Austria, France has not seen any goals in the first halves of their following four matches.
In the round of 16, France was locked in a 0-0 draw with Belgium at halftime but eventually advanced through a late own goal by Verthongen. Will the team be able to break the deadlock in the second half of this fixture?
