CRISTIANO RONALDO and Kylian Mbappe will have one last dance at the Euros THIS Friday as Portugal take on France in a mouthwatering quarter-final tie.
Ronaldo, 39, broke down in tears thinking he had cost his nation a spot in the next round when the Portuguese idol saw his 105th-minute penalty saved during their encounter against Slovenia.

Earlier that day, France were locked in a thrilling tussle with Kevin de Bruyne’s Belgium which was labelled as the tie of the round.
And although it didn’t turn out to be an amazing spectacle, French phenomenon Mbappe was still relieved to see Randal Kolo Muani’s heavily deflected effort give France the win.
Neither superstar had a major impact on their respective round of 16 matches, but they’ll be desperate to put their stamp on this upcoming mammoth clash.
