Blog Entry: Second-half goals from Pepe (61) and substitute Raul Meireles(90) ensured Portugal got their Euro 2008 campaign off to a winning start against Turkey at the Stade de Geneve. Man of the match Pepe sent the Portuguese fans into raptures on the hour with a well-taken goal, playing a neat one-two with captain Nuno Gomes before lifting his shot over Volkan Demirel. Raul Meireles made the points safe in stoppage time when he slotted home following a quick counter-attack involving Cristiano Ronaldo and Joao Moutinho.
