Duda

International career Duda made his debut with Portugal in 2007 at the age of already 27, as the winger position in the national side was packed with talent (Nani, Ricardo Quaresma, Cristiano Ronaldo, Simão Sabrosa). On 20 August 2008, in a 5–0 friendly win over Faroe Islands, he scored his first goal after coming on as a second-half replacement.

During the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Duda was often used as an emergency left-back by national coach Carlos Queiroz. He was included in the squad-of-23 for the final stages in South Africa, where he appeared twice in the group stage: playing 20 minutes against North Korea, he assisted Liédson who took the score to 5–0 in an eventual 7–0 rout. He then started against Brazil, in a 0–0 draw.
