Sporting Sporting defeated Marinhense 3-0 this Saturday, November 22, in a match for the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup. In a game against the team from the Campeonato de Portugal, the Lions had no trouble overcoming the side from Marinha Grande. See HERE how the match unfolded.

In a duel played at Estádio José Alvalade, the Lions did not deliver a brilliant performance, but it was still enough to secure victory. The 1-0 came in the 29th minute. Salvador Blopa crossed from the byline. Francisco Trincão made an incisive move to the heart of the area and, with a header, directed the ball in for the first goal of the match. In the 37th minute, the Portuguese international scored his second. The ‘number 17’ received the ball, turned, and struck powerfully with his left foot from outside the box, leaving Ohoulo Framelin with no chance to save.

In the second half, the Lions considerably slowed the pace of the game. However, the third goal still came in the 81st minute. Geovany Quenda received the ball on the left flank and played a deep pass. Luis Suárez made a run to the far post and tapped in for 3-0.

With this victory – their 14th in 19 matches this season – Rui Borges’s men move on in the Portuguese Cup, heading to the round of 16. Recall that in the 2024/25 season, Sporting won the prestigious trophy by beating Benfica 3-1 in the Jamor final.

The green and white club will be back in action next Wednesday, November 26, against Club Brugge. The match, counting for the fifth round of the Champions League, will be played at Estádio de Alvalade at 8:00 PM, against the team led by Nicky Hayen.
