LYON, France -- Cristiano Ronaldo led Portugal into its second European Championship final, scoring with a powerful header and then setting up Nanis goal soon after in a 2-0 win over Wales on Wednesday.The goals came in the space of three minutes early in the second half in Lyon, helping end Wales unlikely run to the semifinals in only its second ever major tournament.Ronaldo equaled Michel Platinis record of nine goals in European Championship football when he timed a prodigious leap to perfection and planted home a header in the 50th.The Real Madrid star then sent in a long-range shot that a sliding Nani diverted into the net from 10 meters.Ronaldo- a serial winner in club football -- will get another chance to win his first trophy on the international stage, with Portugal playing France or Germany in Sundays final at the Stade de France.Portugal last competed in a final at Euro 2004, when the team lost on home soil to Greece. A 19-year-old Ronaldo shed tears after that match, but he has managed to lead a much weaker side to another international showpiece.Portugal had been extra-time specialists in recent knockout games in major tournaments, and hadnt previously won a match in regulation 90 minutes in France. But Ronaldo produced two telling moments to ensure there would be no late drama here.He was upstaged by Madrid teammate Gareth Bale in a cagey first half, with the Wales star impressing with surging runs and twice going close with shots.Then Ronaldo took center stage, as he invariably does on the big occasion.The owner of the best leap in world football, Ronaldo timed his jump perfectly and headed home Raphael Guerreiros cross off a short-corner routine. Wales defender James Chester had no chance as Ronaldo made contact from just outside the six-yard box for his third goal of the tournament.When Nani turned in a shot from Ronaldo that was drifting wide, the surprise run of Wales -- the rugby-mad nation of 3 million people -- was about to end.

HUDDERSFIELD, England -- American coach David Wagner has rejected interest from Bundesliga clubs to stay at Huddersfield Town and try to lead the club into the English Premier League.Halfway through the second-tier League Championship season, Huddersfield is among the four playoff places, just below the two automatic promotion spots.The 45-year-old Wagner, a former U.S. international, arrived at the northern English club in 2015 from Borussia Dortmund where he was reserve team coach.Now the German-born Wagner is attracting interest from Germanys topflight for jobs, with reports linking with a role at Wolfsburg.It is correct that there has been interest from a few Bundesliga clubs, Wagner said. They have obviously seen the way we are going at Huddersfield Town and the journey we have been on together over the last 12 months.Its important for me to clarify that my focus is on moving forward at Huddersfield Town. We want to develop what has been a good season so far into a great one, with the staff, players and fans together as one.Huddersfield is a three-timee English champion but those successes all came between 1924 and 1926.dddddddddddd By holding on to a coach who is delivering results, Huddersfield hopes to return to the top-flight.Huddersfield Town may not be a Bundesliga club or one that plays in European competition, but make no mistake -- we are a serious, proud, ambitious club with a rich history, Huddersfield chairman Dean Hoyle said.I think Davids ongoing commitment to Huddersfield Town is testament to this club and its standing. Hes turned down several advances from Bundesliga clubs during his time here, the latest coming very, very recently.Wagner, who worked under good friend and former Mainz teammate Juergen Klopp during his time at Dortmund, steered Huddersfield to safety in the Championship last season.The day will come when David moves on, as is the case with every manager or head coach at every club in world football, Hoyle said. However, that day is not upon us. Youth NFL Jerseys Cheap China Jerseys Cheap Wholesale Jerseys From China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Stitched Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap NFL Black Jerseys ' ' '
