LYON, France -- Wales ended its memorable run at the European Championship tired, full of pride and serenaded by devoted fans.When the Welsh national anthem, Land of My Fathers, reverberated one more time long after the final whistle, the Portugal fans who stayed after their teams 2-0 victory in the semifinals applauded the sea of red shirts that still filled the other end of the stadium in Lyon.Im prouder of this team than any team Ive ever been involved in, because I know what theyve sacrificed to get to this stage, Wales coach Chris Coleman said. Ive told them how proud I am of them, and the nation is proud of them.Wales goes home having won four games at Euro 2016, and topped its group. A Portugal team that placed third in its group, and won in 90 minutes for the first time on Wednesday, goes on to the final.Weve done plenty of winning, now its our turn to lose. Its not a nice feeling, said Coleman, adding that he hoped Portugal went on to win the title on Sunday, against France or Germany.Cristiano Ronaldo added to the mutual admiration.Wales had been a shining star here, they were the revelation team, said the Portugal forward, who scored the opening goal early in the second half, and then provided the assist for Nanis strike three minutes later.We just lost our concentration just for five minutes, Coleman acknowledged. Youre going to get punished. And unfortunately they capitalized on that.We were a little bit tired tonight, the coach said, refusing to blame the loss of two key players to suspensions. Influential midfielder Aaron Ramsey and defender Ben Davies each collected second yellow cards of the tournament in the 3-1 win over Belgium in the quarterfinals.Still, the replacements were excellent in the first half, especially James Collins in place of Davies. The ginger-bearded, shaven-headed Collins had a Viking-like look that called to mind Icelands robust spirit at Euro 2016.Collins had physically dominated Ronaldo in the air early on, while Andy King began by filling the Ramsey role as an attacking threat deep in Portugals penalty area while doing tidy defensive duties.The absence of Davies, however, pushed James Chester over to the left side of a three-man central defense -- and that is where Ronaldo found space to hurt Wales.Wales star Gareth Bale responded by throwing himself more vigorously into the challenge, earning a late yellow card for a high boot into the face of Portugal defender Cedric Soares.He was trying everything to get us back into the game, Coleman said of his talisman player with the team-first ethic.Coleman believes Wales broke through a psychological barrier, playing at a first tournament in 58 years. Now he wants his players to show the same hunger and desire to qualify for the 2018 World Cup from a group that includes Austria and Ireland.I think we will give the World Cup campaign a hell of a crack, the coach said.

Ron Jaworski Jersey . -- If this was Aaron Gordons final home game at Arizona, and it almost certainly was, then he went out in style.

That has led to a 4-1 record that has the Raiders tied with Denver atop the AFC West and off to their best start in 14 years.But if the Raiders want to end their 13-year playoff drought and really be contenders in the AFC for the first time in years, it would probably help to come up with a couple of easy wins rather than nail-biters.We have a healthy perspective of what we want to look like and knowing that were not quite there, coach Jack Del Rio said Monday. Theres a lot of work in front of us. I dont think anybody would disagree with that. Theres a long season in front of us, a lot of things we must do better as we go forward.They had a chance for a comfortable finish Sunday against the Chargers when they took a 10-point lead early in the fourth quarter. But instead they quickly allowed San Diego to drive down the field for a touchdown, went three-and-out on the next possession and then needed to stop Melvin Gordon on third-and-2 and have holder Drew Kaser drop a snap on a potential game-tying field goal attempt to hold on for a 34-31 victory.Those types of games have been a pattern for Oakland this season. The Raiders took the lead with a touchdown and 2-point conversion with 47 seconds left in the opener against New Orleans and held on for the 35-34 win when Will Lutz missed a 61-yard field goal on the final play.The following week, the Raiders came up short when they failed to convert a fourth-and-2 down seven points to Atlanta and then couldnt get a third-down stop late to get another chance in a 35-28 loss .Oakland bounced back from that loss with its first three-game winning streak in five years bbut none of the victories came easy.dddddddddddd Tennessee had a potential game-tying TD called back by penalty in the final minute and missed on a final throw into the end zone in the Raiders 17-10 win .Derek Carr then threw the go-ahead TD pass to Michael Crabtree with 2:12 left and the defense got one last stop near midfield in a 28-27 win at Baltimore the following week.All five Raiders games have been decided by seven points or fewer with Oakland getting a pair of one-point wins. The Raiders have outscored the opposition by just five points, tied for the second-lowest mark in the past 20 years for a team that started at least 4-1. Only the 2006 Seahawks, who were outscored by three points in the first five games, were worse, according to Pro Football Reference.One thing about this team is we dont give up, safety Reggie Nelson said. We showed that numerous times now and I think we really dont want to be in that position, but it just so happens to be it. We just got to keep on getting better each week and not put ourselves in those positions.While a defense on pace to allow an NFL-worst 7.0 yards per play this season has gotten plenty of the blame, the Raiders offense could do a better job keeping the team out of these tense situations.In five drives with the lead starting in the final 10 minutes of games, the Raiders have gone three-and-out three times, lost a fumble another time and gained two first downs before punting the fifth time.Thats in contrast to Oaklands great success when losing late. Carr has led the team to four TDs in five attempts when Oakland has trailed
