Sports Scene returns with a look ahead to the Euro 2016 Final. Hosts France booked their spot into the championship match after beating world champions Germany in the semi-finals. Now Les Bleus need to get past Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal to clinch their third major title on home soil, adding to their triumphs at the 1984 European Championship, and the 1998 World Cup.

Didier Deschamps' men have been on a brilliant run at the tournament so far, and need one last victory to put a perfect end to this event. Boasting a strong line-up including Paul Pogba, France are heavy favorites against Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal. They have also won the last ten meetings against their opponents. It is also seen as the best chance for the current French team to win their first major tournament since claiming the European title in 2000.

"It won't be a normal day. It's a final and for the European Championship. It's an exceptional moment for us, a moment we may not experience again, we have to enjoy it and we have to be professional, like we have done throughout the tournament, and we have to be prepared like each match we have played so far. But now this is the last step and there is one last hill to climb, and we will give everything to have a happy moment at the end," said France Midfielder Blaise Matuidi.
