Diogo Jota scored as Portugal beat Finland 4-2 in an international friendly on Tuesday evening.

Liverpool forward Jota netted a penalty in first-half stoppage time in Lisbon and was then withdrawn at the break as Portugal won the first of their three warm-up matches ahead of Euro 2024.

Meanwhile, two Reds came up against each other as Caoimhin Kelleher’s Republic of Ireland defeated a Hungary side captained by Dominik Szoboszlai 2-1.

Both Kelleher and Szoboszlai started and finished the friendly in Dublin, which was settled by a last-gasp goal by Ireland's Troy Parrott.
