Hungary 0-1 Portugal: Great escape


Portugal struck early and held on for a 1-0 win over Hungary to breathe life into their bid for a place at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Pepe gave Portugal the lead, towering above the Hungarian defence to head in from Deco's free kick in the 10th minute.

Hungary almost equalised moments later, but Roland Juhasz's header went wide.

Victory for Portugal took them up to third place in Group One with 13 points from eight matches, and two still to play.

Denmark top the group with 18 points after being held to a 1-1 draw by Albania, while Sweden moved up to second on 15 points after their 1-0 win over Malta. Hungary, like Portugal, have 13 points.
