2-0 down after 20 minutes, Sporting storm back to win derby 4-2 | OneFootball

Sporting’s under-15 team claimed their first win in the National Championship by beating Belenenses 4-2 in Alcochete, on matchday two of the first phase of the South zone. The young Lions had to come from behind after a less-than-ideal start.

The side coached by Filipe Santos found themselves two goals down before the 20-minute mark, with Ricardo Machado making the most of two separate chances to put the visitors ahead. The scoreline was harsh, however, on Sporting’s attacking display, as they were creating chances but struggling to finish them.

The response came before half-time. Amido Baldé pulled one back after finding himself one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper, and Diego Brito levelled the score just before the break, converting the rebound after an incomplete save from a Malam Dafé cross.

Amido Baldégrabbed his second with a first-time shot inside the box. After the draw in the opening round, the Lions therefore secured their first victory in the competition.
