Sporting beat Sporting de Braga 5-0 in the 21st round of the First Football League, a result that puts pressure on Benfica, who play this Sunday in Guimarães.
In a lion’s start, Sporting, who were on a streak of seven consecutive league victories, reached the 18th minute with a 2-0 victory, with goals from Trincao (08) and Eduardo Quaresma (18), as well as the Swede Victor Gyökeres. (71), who is the top scorer with 16 goals, Daniel Braganza (73) and Nuno Santos (85) “engineered” the rout in the second half.
On the other hand, Sporting Braga, which went through three matches without defeat in the championship, has finally broken away from the first places and must now focus on the fight for fourth place with Vitória de Guimarães.
