Portugal heading in the right direction, insists Bento

Portugal coach Paulo Bento felt his side deserved their 3-2 victory over Denmark in Lviv, insisting it would have been “unjust” had his side been held to a draw.

Substitute Silvestre Varela snatched a winner three minutes from time and Bento felt that did justice to their performance.

“The team were focused throughout and showed real quality,” said the Portuguese.
