Portugal kept alive their World Cup qualifying hopes on Saturday
when they held Group One leaders Denmark to a 1-1 draw thanks
to Liedson's 86th-minute equaliser on his international debut.
The hosts opened the scoring three minutes before halftime when
Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner controlled a high ball from Michael
Silberbauer in the middle of the penalty area and blasted it into
the top right corner.
Portugal had many chances to score but Denmark goalkeeper Stephan
Andersen made one save after another until Brazilian-born striker
Liedson finally headed the ball in from inside the penalty area
to equalise with four minutes to go. |
