Sporting striker bags four as they thrash rivals 10-0 in classic cup rout | OneFootball

The Sporting women's football team thrashed Académica (10-0) this Sunday, November 23. In a match for the third round of the Portuguese Cup, the green and white team had no trouble overcoming the side that plays in the fourth division.

In Coimbra, despite several changes to the starting eleven, the Lionesses were clearly superior. Enjoying their best moment of the season, Telma Encarnação (67', 76', 78', and 90') stood out by scoring four goals, but Ana Capeta (6' and 52') and Érica Cancelinha (27' and 65') also shone.

Carolina Santiago, in the 70th minute, and Carla Armengol, in the 90'+2, also found the back of the net in Sporting's more than comfortable victory, which had already secured midweek qualification for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa Cup, after a win against Glasgow City.

With this victory – their seventh in 14 games this season – Micael Sequeira's side advance to the fourth round of the premier cup competition. It is worth recalling that the Alvalade club has not won the competition since the 2021/22 season, when they defeated Famalicão (2-1) in the final.

The green and white emblem now turns its attention to the seventh round of the Liga BPI. Sporting's next match is scheduled for Saturday, December 6, at 3:00 p.m., against Rio Ave. The clash against João Marques' side will be played in Vila do Conde.
