U15: leaders FC Porto thrash Alverca 4-0, pile pressure on rivals | OneFootball

FC Porto remain unstoppable at the top of the National U15 Championship title phase and, with this Saturday’s 4-0 home win over Alverca, pile the pressure on Benfica and Sporting, who only play this Sunday and are now six points behind the leaders.

The Dragons were clear favourites and needed less than a minute to open the scoring through Simão Fonseca. From then on, it was all blue and white for the first 40 minutes, with the match virtually settled by half-time. In the 11th minute, Lourenço Moutinho doubled the lead, before Tiago Portugal grabbed a brace (33’ and 40’+1) to make it 4-0.

In the second half, Manuel Prata’s side continued to control the game, though without the sharpness needed to increase the margin further. The chances kept coming, almost always at the same end. FC Porto’s goalkeepers, first Luca Cocato and then Francisco Barreiros for the final 21 minutes, were not required to make a single save.
