Portugal secured qualification to Euro 2016 as Group I winners by beating Denmark 1-0 at the Estadio Municipal in Braga.
Needing just a point to clinch their spot at next summer's tournament, Portugal scored the only goal in a cagey encounter when Joao Moutinho produced an emphatic finish to beat Kasper Schmeichel midway through the second half.
The loss leaves Denmark in second spot at the end of their qualifying campaign, but they will be condemned to a playoff if Albania beat Armenia at the weekend.
Read below to find out how the action unfolded.
DENMARK: Schmeichel; Jacobsen, Kjaer, Agger, Durmisi; Wass, Hoijberg, Krohn-Delhi; Braithwaite, Eriksen, Bendtner
DENMARK SUBS: Jorgensen, Sisto, Andersen, S. Poulsen, Kvist, Vestergaard, Lossl, Kahlenberg, Sviatchenko, Rasmussen, Y. Poulsen, J. Poulsen

Leipzig forward Yussuf Poulsen looks a good bet to come on for the visitors. At some stage, Olsen may have to think about giving Bendtner a strike partner.
