Porto B defeated Paços de Ferreira 1-0 in the match that concluded the 23rd round of Liga Portugal 2. Domingos Andrade, former captain of Sporting's under-23 team, was in the starting lineup for the blue and whites and played the full 90 minutes of the match.
The only goal came in the first minute, courtesy of Gonçalo Sousa, who shot across the area and beat Rafa Oliveira. Trailing from very early on, Paços tried to respond and had more possession, but struggled to create real danger. João Costa was called upon to intervene at key moments, maintaining Porto's lead.
In the second half, the same scenario persisted, with the visitors more dominant but not very effective. In the final moments, Paços even appealed for a penalty, but nothing was awarded. Porto B climbed to sixth place (34 points), while Paços (23) remains at the bottom of the table. Meanwhile, Sporting B lost to Marítimo and is in third place with 38 points.
Domingos Andrade, currently valued at 900 thousand euros, bid farewell to the lions after two seasons at Alvalade (from 2021 to 2023), which was his first experience in Portugal. In total, the young player made one appearance for the B team, one match for the juniors, and played 48 games for the under-23s, scoring five goals.
The footballer is in his second season wearing the dragons' jersey, primarily representing the B team, led by João Brandão. For the secondary team of the blue and whites, the player has already played 18 games this season (one goal), being one of the regular starters in the Segunda Liga.
