Toffees come unstuck in Lisbon as Euro tilt ends
Holding a 2-1 advantage from the first leg and on the back of a superb victory against Manchester United, they were widely expected to complete the job in Portugal.
However, Sporting shrugged off their indifferent form to progress to the last 16 thanks to second-half goals from Miguel Veloso, Pedro Mendes and substitute Matias Fernandez.
