Sport in Portugal

Fernando Santos, who led Greece to the last 16 of the World Cup in Brazil, has been appointed Portugal's new head coach, the FPF announced on Tuesday.

Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş and Chelsea will play in a charity tournament on Aug. 8 at Istanbul’s Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium for the victims’ families of the Soma mining disaster. 

The three teams will each play two games on a night of three 45-minute matches.

Outgoing Greece coach Fernando Santos has angered sections of the local media and soccer figures by claiming that some of his players were more interested in personal success than following instructions.

Greece lost on penalties against 10-man Costa Rica in their last 16 clash in Recife on Sunday, after the match had ended 1-1 in extra time.
