Corluka: 'Weak' Portugal worse than Turkey & Czech Republic

The Lokomotiv Moscow captain has launched a scathing attack on Fernando Santos’ side, claiming they are poorer than two teams knocked out in the group stage

Croatia defender Vedran Corluka believes Euro 2016 quarter-finalists Portugal are worse than Turkey and the Czech Republic.

A 117th-minute goal from Ricardo Quaresma saw Portugal edge Croatia 1-0 in the last 16 in what was a poor encounter in Lens on Saturday.

Fernando Santos' men are yet to win in 90 minutes at the tournament, but find themselves in a quarter-final with Poland.

Corluka was less than impressed by Cristiano Ronaldo and Co.
