Match in Five Sentences: Famalicão beat Santa Clara 1-0. Sorriso struck the winner in the 75th minute, turning in Rodrigo Pinheiro's delivery. Santa Clara pushed late, with Gabriel Silva hitting the bar in the second minute of second half stoppage time. The hosts fired 15 attempts but found the target only once, which summed up their finishing. Famalicão rise from ninth to seventh and host Tondela next, while Santa Clara visit Moreirense.
Player of the Match: Sorriso settled the contest with his only shot and grafted all game, winning the ball eight times and completing 13 successful final third passes.
Stat of the Match: Santa Clara produced 15 attempts but managed just one on target, a lack of accuracy that proved costly.
Three Things We Learned: Justin De Haas made eight clearances, organising a defence that limited clear looks at goal. Santa Clara's supply misfired, with 23 crosses at 17.4% accuracy despite nine corners. Gabriel Silva led their threat with five attempts and a late effort against the woodwork.
