Match in Five Sentences: Tondela and Gil Vicente drew 2-2 in Liga Portugal. Rony Lopes put Tondela ahead in the 15th minute with a low strike from outside the box. After VAR ruled out an earlier effort, Murilo converted from the spot to equalise (29.), and substitute Sérgio Duarte headed Gil Vicente in front late on (90.). Tondela shaded possession with 52.1% but the visitors posted more attempts, 14 to 10. The hosts stay 17th and visit Porto next, while Gil Vicente remain sixth and host Vitória S.C. next.

Stat of the Match: Daniel Figueira saved a penalty and made three saves, a key reason the visitors led until added time.

Three Things We Learned: Gil Vicente's bench made an impact as Joelson Fernandes came on and supplied the cross for Duarte's late lead.

Shot volume favoured the visitors at 14 attempts to 10, but Tondela's 52.1% possession underlined a balanced contest.
