Playing in front of the tourney's first full-capacity crowd (55,662), F1-Hungary held tight against heavy favorites F2-Portugal only to see the visitors score three times after the 84' to lose 3-0. Ronaldo scored the last two goals, on a PK, and then a great effort to get around the GK in stoppage time (first goal past 90' in this tourney). That broke a tie and his 11 goals is the new Euro record. HUN also had a goal taken away by offsides, which rocked the stadium.
F3-France had two goals called back by offsides (1 by VAR) so it was an own goal in the first half that gave the 1-0 margin over home side F4-Germany. The 3-time Euro champion GER lost an opening match for the first time.
The first stage is done! 12 matches down, 24 to go in the Group Stage. 47 picked POR and 32 picked FRA. Club Med remains in 1st with 9 pts. 31 went 2-0 while Dagger went 0-2. There's a 3-way tie for last with 4 pts.
