Jose Mourinho’s message to Portugal

Jose Mourinho celebrates

Jose Mourinho has led the celebrations after Portugal's shock Euro 2016 victory.

Fernando Santos' men stunned the hosts in Paris as substitute Eder stepped off the bench to fire home an extra-time winner.

It came despite talismanic skipper Cristiano Ronaldo going off with a knee injury inside 25 minutes.

Portugal, who managed just one win in normal time throughout their seven games at the tournament and only finished third in their first-phase group, delivered a resolute display against the odds.

And as their fans celebrated long into the night, Mourinho took to Instagram to pay tribute.

"If you want to visit the country of the european champions visit PORTUGAL!!!!" He said in a caption to Instagram photo.

Ronaldo was reduced to tears as he lifted the European Championship trophy aloft at full-time.

The Real Madrid superstar was in clear discomfort after a heavy challenge from Dimitri Payet, but initially refused to leave the field.

After eventually conceding his time was up, he was later seen giving a team-talk to his side before issuing instructions from the touchline technical area during the extra-time period.
