New Delhi, Nov. 15 -- Denmark strengthened their bid for a place in the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals after registering a 4-1 victory over Portugal in their League A Group A4 encounter at the Estadio Municipal de Braga in Braga on Saturday.

Rasmus Hojlund scored twice in the second half after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg had converted a first-half penalty. Joachim Andersen added Denmark's fourth goal, while Bernardo Silva scored a late consolation for Portugal.

The result ended Portugal's perfect start to their Nations League campaign, having won their opening four matches. However, the defeat did not affect their qualification for the quarter-finals, with the hosts having already secured a place in the last eight.
