While Sporting’s main team was still training in the professional wing, their Under-23 side were playing in the fourth round of the Série B of the Revelation League with the goal of capturing their first win in the competition. The goal of the lions will be achieved in Mafra’s reception with a 2-1 victory.
The Norwegian Nikolai Skoglund scored the only goal in the first half, and put the ball accurately over goalkeeper Renan after it was thrown in the depth with a long pass by Chico Lamba from the defensive sector of the Greens and Whites, a little half an hour ago.
Mafra responded and restored par at the end of the match, with a penalty sanctioned by an attempt to tackle out of time by Joao Ferreira, who had already hit Edo Ferreira inside the Leonen area.
Joao Dias changed the maximum penalty and brought the Mavens back to the discussion of the score, but Nikolai Skoglund would be the protagonist back in the 1970s, when he was matching in the small area with Rodrigo Marquez’s movement.
And so Sporting reacted in the best way to the previous two defeats, to Portimonense and Farenci, and reached Estoril in fifth (the ‘Canary’ team received Estrella da Amadora this afternoon).
