The Lions attacked from the beginning and defined the confrontation in the first stage. The first goal came in the 12th minute with the Brazilian Bruno Tabata, who cleared the mark and hit it beautifully with his left leg. Already at 31, the same Tabata found Matheus Nunes at the entrance of the area, who pulled to the back and hit hard to widen.
In the second half, Sporting continued to press and was rewarded. Ricardo Esgaio received a throw and crossed low for Bruno Tabata, who swelled the nets and scored his second in the game. Finally, Vinagre crossed and Nuno Santos decreed the victory of the visitors.
