Portugal coach Luiz Felipe Scolari warned his side not to get too carried away after their 2-0 victory over Turkey in Geneva.

Goals from Pepe and Raul Meireles gave Scolari's men a deserved win, with Portugal also hitting the woodwork three times during the game.

"Today we achieved 50 per cent of our qualification," Scolari told reporters. "It was great the way we maintained our structure.

"Now we need another good job against the Czech Republic, but this result gives us the possibility of a slip up. We can breathe a bit easier for our next match.

"We must maintain our rhythm and not let this success make us over-confident."
