Raul full of praise for Real Madrid starlet Portillo

Real Madrid ace Raul was full of praise for Javier Portillo after the youngster's 90th minute effort earned a point against Borussia Dortmund last night.

Portillo's strike equalized Jan Koller's first-half goal for BVB to keep Real's hopes intact of reaching the last eight of the Champions League.

Afterwards, Raul said: "He (Portillo) has made a massive contribution to this team because of his goal tonight."

"With it, we are still in the Champions League."

"We dominated many periods of the game, but couldn't find a goal until Portillo came on. We are very happy, because we continue relying on ourselves to reach the quarter-finals."

Portillo said, "This goal is very important for me."

"I always thought about prevailing in this team. I hope to have more minutes, to prevail and to win many titles."
