Portugal manager Paulo Bento has claimed that it would have been unfair for his side to draw with Denmark on Wednesday.

A late Silvestre Varela goal earned Portugal a 3-2 victory and Bento insists that his men were clearly the better team.

Bento said: "The team were focused throughout and showed real quality.

"We created chances, especially in the first half, and I think 2-0 would have been a just result at half time.

"The equaliser was unjust but we didn't bow our heads, we showed character and got the winner we deserved."

Portugal are currently third in Group B with only the Netherlands left to play.
