With the Real Madrid contingent still celebrating their Champions League triumph Santos' men showed they will be no pushovers for Euro 2016, as they romped to victory in Porto.

Portugal showed it is far from a one-man team with a convincing victory over Norway on Sunday, as the Lusitanians won 3-0 in a one-sided friendly.

With Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe both absent following Real Madrid's Champions League victory, Ricardo Quaresma made his own case with a stunning strike to open the scoring.

Raphael Guerreiro doubled Portugal's advantage in the second half, curling a brilliant free kick out of Jarstein's reach to press his claims to be first choice at left back for Portugal at the tournament in France.
