Watch: Moreno's heroic header gives Mexico Confed Cup draw vs. Portugal

Highlights from Mexico vs. Portugal in the Confederations Cup.

Portugal thought it had stolen a win off Mexico in the Group A favorites' Confederations Cup opener, but El Tri managed to walk out with a point in heroic fashion.

Hector Moreno, fresh off signing a deal to move from PSV to Roma, headed in Jonathan Dos Santos's stoppage-time corner kick, and Mexico salvaged a 2-2 draw vs. the reigning European champions in Kazan.

Portugal had gone ahead minutes earlier through Cedric, whose deflected shot beat Guillermo Ochoa moments after the goalkeeper had made a sensational stop to deny a go-ahead goal.

Portugal had opened the scoring through Ricardo Quaresma, who finished off an assist from Cristiano Ronaldo in the 34th minute.

Great vision by Ronaldo and a cheeky finish by Quaresma!

Minutes before halftime, though, Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez tied the game with his fourth Confederations Cup goal and his 48th all-time goal for Mexico, padding his international lead.

Cedric then put Portugal ahead after a cutback cross from Liverpool target Gelson Martins, only for Mexico's pressure to pay off late, with Moreno heading home the equalizer despite a hand being in his face as he leaped to nod in the ball.
