FC Porto B beat Chaves at home with a Vonic double | OneFootball

FC Porto B beat Chaves 3-0 in the 28th round of the Second League, in a match decided by the home side’s efficiency, highlighted by Vonic’s brace and the visitors’ defensive errors.

After a brighter start from the team from Trás-os-Montes, it was the home side that showed greater ability to make the most of the key moments of the game. Chaves began by taking the initiative, looking mainly down the flanks and creating some danger, as in a free-kick by André Rodrigues in the 26th minute, which forced Gonçalo Ribeiro into a solid save.

However, the visitors’ defensive mistakes ended up proving decisive. In the 16th minute, Vozinha made an error while playing out from the back under pressure and gave the ball away to Gonçalo Sousa, who set up Leonardo Vonic for the opening goal.

FC Porto B’s high press intensified and paid off again just before half-time. In the 36th minute, Vonic scored again in a move initially surrounded by doubt, but confirmed by VAR.

The goal came from another slip by Chaves’ defence, with Bruno Rodrigues slipping and allowing Gonçalo Sousa to provide another assist for the German forward, who completed his brace.

In the second half, Chaves tried to respond and began to enjoy more territorial dominance, looking to cut the deficit. Even so, they were almost always met by Porto’s defensive solidity and the assured display of Gonçalo Ribeiro, who denied Jorge Delgado an almost certain goal in the 70th minute.

Despite the visitors’ greater initiative, it was FC Porto B who scored again late on. In the 87th minute, Mateus Mide produced an excellent individual run, carrying the ball from midfield into the opposition box, where he finished with a precise shot to make it 3-0.

With this result, FC Porto B move up to sixth place with 41 points, while Chaves remain 11th with 36, after a match in which they paid dearly for their mistakes.
