Portugal defender Pepe insisted personal satisfaction was secondary with regard to his opening goal in the 3-2 win over Denmark, which was for the overall benefit to the team."I had the luck to score against Turkey at the last Euro," said the 29-year-old Real Madrid defender."I was able to help once again my team, but the most important thing is the team. We showed a real willingness to sacrifice ourselves in order to win this match."A stunning goal by substitute Silvestre Varela three minutes from time saw the 2004 finalists take the points after they had let slip a 2-0 lead as Danish striker Nicklas Bendtner drew the Danes level with two headers.Goals from Pepe - with a superb header - and Helder Postiga, with his 20th goal for his country, had given the Portuguese a perfect start
