Podcast: Portugal wins Euro 2016; Cristiano Ronaldo's final

We wrap up the Euro 2016 final, Cristiano Ronaldo's injury and the tournament as a whole in our latest podcast episode.

Portugal has captured the Euro 2016 title, putting an end to the tournament and sparking all sorts of reaction around the globe.

On one hand there's congratulations to Portugal for winning its first major trophy and for doing so despite Cristiano Ronaldo being injured early in the final. On the othere, there are the detractors. Does it matter that Portugal finished third in its group and won without playing "beautiful" soccer? Was this more France giving the final away than it was Portugal winning it? What should we make of Ronaldo, whose injury early in the match added a whole new compelling chapter, including a cameo as a de facto manager on the sideline?

We close by taking a broader look back at Euro 2016 as a whole, sharing our top memories and best moments from the last month in France.
