Vaz-Te Off The Mark

Last updated : 16 February 2005 By Mark Heys
Bolton Wanderers striker Ricardo Vaz-Te scored the opening goal for the Portugal U20 team yesterday evening as they defeated a Maderia XI side by three goals to two.

The 18-year old has had quite a year on both the domestic and international front and is now a regular squad member for his club side Bolton whom he joined from Sporting Farense in 2003.

Vaz-Te is hopeful of being included in this weekend's FA Cup clash against Fulham after impressing as a substitute during the recent goalless draw with Middlesbrough.
