Decisive figure wins penalty and supplies equaliser for Gil Vicente at Estrela Amadora | OneFootball

Hector Hernandez won a penalty in the 10th minute and later set up the equaliser, as Gil Vicente drew 2-2 at Estrela Amadora.

The forward's direct running drew contact in the box early on. VAR confirmed the spot kick, which was converted to give the visitors the platform they wanted.

After the restart, with Estrela Amadora ahead, Hernandez stayed involved high up the pitch and picked out the pass for the leveller (69.), restoring parity at a tense stage of the game.

He finished with an assist and a penalty won, plus eight successful final third passes and seven possession regains, underlining how his movement and hold-up play kept the home defence occupied.

His willingness to receive under pressure and release runners meant Gil Vicente could progress attacks quickly, stretching Estrela Amadora's back line whenever transitions appeared.

Gil Vicente host Alverca next. Estrela Amadora visit Rio Ave.
