What was the score of Portugal's Euro 2016 final win over France?

The story behind the answer

Portugal’s Euro 2016 final win over France finished 1–0 after extra time.

The final was played on 10 July 2016 at the Stade de France, with Portugal seeking its first European Championship title. France created the stronger early chances, but the match remained goalless through 90 minutes.

Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo was forced off injured in the first half after a challenge from Dimitri Payet. Despite losing their star forward, Portugal stayed organized and eventually found the decisive goal through substitute Éder, whose long-range strike in the 109th minute beat goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

A common mix-up is remembering the final as a 90-minute 1–0 win. The score was 0–0 at the end of regulation; Portugal won 1–0 in extra time. The result also avenged Portugal’s defeat by Greece in the Euro 2004 final.
