Portugal – Slovenia match report

The Portugal-Slovenia match of the last-16 stage of EURO-2024 was rich in statistical moments.

As Idman.biz reports, IFFHS has prepared a report on the match.

Pepe became the oldest player (41 years 126 days) to appear in a World Cup or Euro knockout game, breaking Peter Shilton's record.

Cristiano Ronaldo has failed to score in each of his last 8 appearances at major international tournaments (4 in World Cup 2022 and 4 in Euro 2024).

Cristiano Ronaldo has attempted at Euro 2024 so far:
more shots (20) than any other player (the next are Mbappe and Havertz with 15),
more shots on target (9) than any other player.

Only 4 players have taken more shots without scoring at a single Euro tournament (Deco 24 in 2004, Hierro 23 in 1996, De Bruyne 21 in 2016, Olmo 21 in 2020).
Cristiano became the first player who has missed 2 penalties in Euro (not counting shootouts): against Austria in 2016 (hit the post) and now against Slovenia (stopped by Oblak).

Cristiano has missed 3 of his 9 penalties in World Cups and Euros (the one missed at World Cups was against Iran in 2018).

His success percentage (67%) in major national team tournaments is well below his career average (85%).

Cristiano’s penalty vs Oblak was the 100th awarded in the final stages of the Euros (not counting shootouts): 69 of them converted, 31 failed.

It was the 2nd missed penalty in Euro extra time after the one Harry Kane missed against Denmark in 2021.

8 of Portugal's 16 matches in Euro knockout stages went to extra time.

Portugal’s Diogo Costa is the first goalkeeper in Euro history:

to save 3 penalties in a shootout series,
to concede 0 goals in the shootouts.

It was the shortest shootout series (6 penalties) in Euro history.

The previous record was 7 penalties in the 2008 game Turkey vs Croatia (3-1).

Slovenia is the first team that does not convert a penalty in a Euro shootout.

Slovenia is the first team in the history of the Euros and World Cups to leave the tournament with 4 draws in 4 games.

Slovenia is the winless team with the most matches (7) in the Euro finals (6 draws and 1 defeat).

Portugal won 3:0 in the penalty shootout of the match that ended goalless.
