Portugal had a strong second-half performance going from a two-goal lead to a 15-goal lead. Winning over inexperienced Cape Verde was an important task for Portugal as they are now a second team in the group and can still hope for the quarter-finals spot ahead of the top-notch last match against co-host Sweden.
