Which team did Portugal beat in the 2019 UEFA Nations League final?

Portugal beat the Netherlands in the 2019 UEFA Nations League final.

The inaugural Nations League final was played on 9 June 2019 at the Estádio do Dragão in Porto, Portugal. Portugal won 1–0, with Gonçalo Guedes scoring the decisive goal in the second half after receiving a pass from Bernardo Silva and finishing from outside the penalty area.

The victory made Portugal the first champions of the UEFA Nations League, a competition introduced for European national teams to provide more meaningful fixtures than many international friendlies. Portugal had defeated Switzerland in the semi-final, while the Netherlands had beaten England to reach the final.

Ronaldo did not score in the final, although he was central to Portugal’s route through the tournament: he scored a hat-trick against Switzerland in the semi-final. A frequent mix-up is to name France, because the Netherlands had defeated the reigning world champions during the league phase, not in the final.
