Decisive figure off the bench delivers for Tondela at Casa Pia | OneFootball

Bebeto converted a penalty in the 68th minute to give Tondela a 1-0 win at Casa Pia.

Soon after coming on, he took responsibility from the spot after VAR confirmed the penalty, guiding a right-footed finish into the bottom left. It settled a cagey game and shifted momentum Tondela's way.

He then carried a threat late on, supplying Makan Aïko for a header that was saved in the first minute of second half stoppage time. That passage pinned Casa Pia back and helped Tondela manage the finale.

Beyond the goal, Bebeto's work rate told. He finished with three tackles, two interceptions and five possession wins, plus one key pass and three successful final third passes, underlining a blend of nous and calm that steadied his side.

Introduced at a tight moment, his energy and directness gave Tondela an outlet and control of key phases, ensuring the lead stuck.

Tondela host Moreirense next in Liga Portugal, while Casa Pia visit Vitória S.C. on the same matchday.
