Portugal held a press conference in St Etienne ahead of their opening Euro 2016 fixture at the Geoffroy Guichard Stadium against Iceland.

SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fernando Santos, Portugal coach (Q: What do you think of Iceland?)

"It's a great team well organized with a coach who knows how to prepare for these kind of games. He knows what he wants. They know how to adapt their game to their opponent. They qualified for this tournament, they put a lot of energy on the field it's going be very difficult for us. We will try to be as creative as we can. We also know that in this tournament, the third team in each group can still get qualification. We're here to get our qualification, so victory tomorrow."

SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fernando Santos, Portugal coach (Q:Is Cristiano Ronaldo feeling good?)

"He's very well. He's very motivated, especially after winning the Champions League. But we all want and him also to get victory and for his part he's very motivated."
