Germany 1-0 Portugal [ video & pics ]

Germany 1-0 Portugal

Mario Gomez's second-half header ensured Germany made a winning start to Euro 2012 after Portugal had threatened to frustrate Joachim Loew's side.
Germany dominated possession but struggled to create many chances until Gomez broke the deadlock from Sami Khedira's cross in the 72nd minute.
Portugal were disappointing and only came to life after Germany scored.
Pepe hit the bar with a rare first-half chance while Nani was also denied by the woodwork late on.
Portugal must bounce back against Denmark on 13 June, the same day Germany face Netherlands, who lost 1-0 to the Danes in their opening game .
This match was billed as one of the most eagerly-awaited contests of the group stage
