COVILHA, Portugal (AP) — Cameroon captain Samuel Eto’o got ejected in the first half and Raul Meireles scored twice to help Portugal earn a 3-1 win Tuesday over the Indomitable Lions in a World Cup warmup game.
Meireles, an FC Porto midfielder, struck in the 32nd and 47th minutes as Portugal dictated the run of play.
Eto’o was sent off in the 34th after being shown his second yellow card for a high tackle on left back Duda.
Achille Webo pulled one back with a header in the 69th, seven minutes after coming on as a substitute but Nani chipped over goalkeeper Idriss Kameni with nine minutes left.
Cristiano Ronaldo was twice denied inside the penalty area when he seemed sure to score, leaving him still looking for his first international goal in 16 months.
