All of us have seen how Cristiano Ronaldo and his Portugal mates celebrated their Euro Championship triumph after emerging victorious against France, but now it has emerged that veteran Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh was as thrilled as any other Portuguese fan for the historic victory.

The talismanic left-hander posted a video on Facebook where is seen standing beside a TV set which shows Ronaldo lifting the trophy. He chanted 'Portugal Portugal' while jumping up in the air to showcase his happiness. "Jump jump jump ! Jump for Portugal Cristiano Ronaldo! Many congrats to the whole country totally deserved it France favourites to win but Portuguese showed resistance," he captioned the video. 

In what can be termed as a dream coming true for Ronaldo, Portugal clinched their maiden international title after beating hosts France 1-0 in the mouth-watering summit clash at Stade de France on Monday.

After both sides failed to score goals in the regulation time, substitute Eder struck the match-winning goal for Portugal to ensure his side finish their Euro 2016 campaign on a winning note. The match also saw skipper Ronaldo subbed in the 25th minute of the match, eight minutes after injuring his knee in a clash with France's Dimitri Payet, the Guardian reported.

France, who were favourites to clinch the title, failed to capitalise on Ronaldo's absence and eventually saw end of their 18-match home winning streak. 

Portugal have somewhat erased their harsh memories of the Euro 2004 final defeat to Greece, which left the Real Madrid striker crying on the pitch.
