In the end, the game went to a penalty shoot-out, with Slovenia and Portugal in a fierce battle.

Cristiano Ronaldo's crucial save and the team's outstanding performance finally helped Portugal eliminate their opponents with an aggregate score of 3-0 and successfully advance to the quarterfinals of the European Championship. Slovenia usually play with a back five against strong opponents at the European Championships, a tactic that focuses on counter-attacking defence. They know that they can only counter the attacks of the top teams through tight formations and quick counter-attacks. In the European qualifiers, against weaker opponents, they will rarely use the traditional 442 formation, preferring to use the 532 formation, which is more suitable for dealing with the opponent's weaknesses and reducing the risk of mistakes.
Some fans online have a mixed opinion on Slovenia's tactical options. Some argue that this counter-attacking strategy is sensible, especially against strong teams in the European Championships, where being conservative and steady can reduce the likelihood of conceding goals. One fan named Peter commented: "It is indeed a wise move for Slovenia to play a strong team with a back five, after all, their core is limited, and it is not easy to hold their ground. ”
There are also criticisms of Slovenia's conservative tactics. Some fans feel that Slovenia should be a little bolder against weaker opponents and should not always rely on defensive counter-attacks. "They use the 532 formation to play the weak team, a little too conservative, right?" A fan named David expressed his opinion on the forum, "The European preliminaries are originally a test of strength, and if Slovenia does not dare to take risks, it may be limited in terms of improving its strength." ”
At the crucial moment of the penalty shootout, Ronaldo stood in front of the penalty spot, and there was no nervousness on his face. With his eyes firmly fixed on the goal, he easily smashed the ball into the bottom left corner. This scene made the fans boil, and the Portuguese fans on the scene chanted his name and praised him for his calmness and accuracy.
In the following rounds of penalty kicks, the rest of the Portuguese team also showed composure and decisiveness, hitting the goal in succession. Every time a player stands in front of a penalty spot, it's a challenge and an opportunity. Their performance not only demonstrated their technical mastery, but also their confidence and determination in a stressful environment.
Meanwhile, Slovenia failed to find a breakthrough in the penalty shootout. Their first penalty taker was saved by the Portuguese goalkeeper, which gave Portugal an even bigger advantage. Although the next few attempts were close, they failed to overcome Cristiano Ronaldo's crucial saves and the consistency of the Portuguese players.
After the game, the stadium was filled with scenes of celebration by Portuguese players. They hugged each other and felt the joy of victory. Cristiano Ronaldo was lifted by his teammates and became the center of attention. The Slovenian players, on the other hand, looked a little disappointed, and despite their efforts, they were unable to overcome their opponents.
After the game, all eyes were on Cristiano Ronaldo's performance, who not only played a key role in the penalty shoot-out, but also showed charisma and determination as a leader. For Portugal, their next opponent will be a strong French side who will need to continue their form and develop the appropriate tactics to meet the challenge.
