Portugal defeated Spain in penalty kicks 5- 3 to win the UEFA Nations League final late on Sunday after both sides failed to score in extra time following a showdown that ended 2-2.

After Nuno Mendes, Bruno Fernandes, Vitinha, and Goncalo Ramos all smoothly scored their penalties, Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa saved Spain’s Álvaro Morata’s spot kick before Neves converted his team’s fifth to seal the win.

The win marks the second Nations League trophy for Portugal after lifting the inaugural edition in 2019.

Its victory against Spain, the reigning European champions, was hard-fought, as the Seleção had come back twice from behind.

Cristiano Ronaldo sent the match to extra time when he equalised in the 61st minute with his record-extending 138th goal for Portugal.

The 40-year-old Ronaldo went off to a standing ovation and a hug from Coach Roberto Martínez in the 88th.
