Czech Republic 0-1 Portugal
Portugal left it late to beat Czech Republic at the National Stadium in the first quarter-final of Euro 2012. Captain Christiano Ronaldo was once again the hero as his fine header in the 79th minute was enough to send his side through to the last four. Portugal dominated the match and fully deserved the win, while the Czech's offered little in terms of attack.
