Queiroz's men end winless run

Portugal ended a run of three games without a win with a 2-0 victory over World Cup hosts South Africa in a friendly in Lausanne. Goals from Bruno Alves and an own goal from Lucas Twala were enough to give Carlos Queiroz's side a morale-boosting win. Portugal got off to a flying start with Alves heading home Deco's corner after just four minutes Portugal doubled their lead on 56 minutes when Twala, under pressure from Edinho, turned the ball into his own net. Cristiano Ronaldo replaced Deco in the second half, but he failed to make any impact as Portugal ran out comfortable winners.
