New Delhi: The Indian national team played out a 1-1 draw with Portuguese third division outfit Odivelas Futebol Clube in the last practice match of its Portugal tour in Lisbon on Saturday. After a barren first half, the Portuguese side drew first blood in the 60th minute, but India retaliated strongly with defender N.S. Manju restoring parity two minutes later. Manju made no mistake off a Syed Rahim Nabi pass from the left flank. India started off with Subhasish Roy Choudhury in the goal with Manju, Mahesh Gawli, Govin Singh and N Mohanraj in the defence. Jagpreet Singh got to start as right-winger while Baldeep Singh and Mehrajuddin Wadoo once again paired up in central midfield with Rahim Nabi operating from the left. Baljit Sahni and Sushil Kumar Singh were the two strikers. India ended its two-month tour of Portugal, which is part of its preparation for next year's Asian Cup in Qatar, after playing 10 practice matches, all of them against third or second division sides. India won six times, drew and lost twice each. — PTI
