Under-15s: top FC Porto hit Alverca for four, pile pressure on rivals | OneFootball

FC Porto remain unstoppable at the top of the championship qualification stage of the National Under-15 Championship and, with this Saturday’s 4-0 home win over Alverca, have piled pressure on Benfica and Sporting, who only play this Sunday and are now six points behind the leaders.

All the favouritism was on the side of the Dragons, who needed less than a minute to open the scoring through Simão Fonseca. From then on, it was all blue and white during 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 add to the rout. 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, did not have to make a single save.
