Euro 2016: France to play Portugal in final
France have qualified for the final of the European Championship, after a 2-0 win over world champions, Germany.
The hosts put up great resistance against waves of German attacks, to edge the semi-final clash played at the Stade Velodrome.
Referee Nicola Rizzoli punished Bastian Schweinsteiger for handball as the first half came to a close and Antoine Griezmann blasted his country into the lead.
Didier Deschamps men withstood more pressure in the second half, before Griezmann capitalized on a defensive mix-up to poke in the second.
France will now play Portugal for the trophy on Sunday evening.
