Decisive figure settles it for Vitória S.C. at Gil Vicente | OneFootball

Gustavo Silva settled it in the 66th minute with a right-footed shot from outside the box, as Vitória S.C. won 1-0 at Gil Vicente. An earlier finish was ruled out by VAR (36.).

Silva signalled his threat early, forcing a low save from distance (2.). He then drifted in from the left and dragged a chance wide before the interval (45.).

After the restart he kept asking questions, seeing one effort blocked from range (52.). The decisive moment followed when he took Gonçalo Nogueira's pass and drove it into the bottom right corner (66.).

The forward finished with six attempts and two on target, plus 10 possessions won and seven aerials won that helped Vitória S.C. stick higher up the pitch. He also made two clearances and departed after a knock (74.).

Vitória S.C. rise from eighth to seventh and host Rio Ave next. Gil Vicente welcome Casa Pia in their next Liga Portugal fixture.
