France drew 0-0 at home to Portugal in the Uefa Nations League on Sunday in a cagey clash between the world and European champions which largely failed to live up to its billing.

Cristiano Ronaldo came closest to scoring when he fired a left-footed strike at goal in added time but his deflected shot was well saved by France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

The result kept holders Portugal top of League A Group 3 with seven points after three games, while France are second, also with seven.

In Gdansk, Italy coach Roberto Mancini fumed over the state of the pitch after his team were held to a 0-0 draw away to Poland. After a miss by Federico Chiesa, Italy struggled.
