The first goal of the game was scored by André Pereira, who took responsibility for beating a penalty conceded by Emmanuel Boateng. At 19, the attacker hit the bottom left corner hard and, even with the goalkeeper hitting the corner, rocked the net.
The owners of the house scored for the second time at the end of the lights, in the 49th minute of the second half. João Graça attempted a cross from the right and, after a deflection, the ball covered the Estoril goalkeeper. She even touched the beam before entering.
