Joao Felix opened the scoring for Portugal in his own League of Nations clash against Norway with a superb strike from the edge of the box.
The Al-Nassr striker scored for the second time in as many games to put the Selecao 1-0 up after just 17 minutes in Oslo, capping off a flowing display by the visitors.
Both teams had threatened in the early stages, but it was Portugal who took the lead when Nuno Mendes moved the ball up the pitch to Pedro Neto, who advanced before finding Felix on the edge of the box.
The 26-year-old took a touch before calmly slotting the ball into the bottom-left corner in delicate style.
It is Felix’s second goal in as many games for the Selecao, having scored the winner in the 1-0 win against Wales last week.
Both teams are looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Nations League, with Norway defeating Denmark 3-2.
