In an unrepeatable “thriller”, Boavista defeated Benfica 3-2 in Porto with a goal in the… 113′ and with a reversal from the 1-2 of the “eagles”, in the match that completed the premiere of this year’s Primeira Liga and gave the opportunity in Porto and Sporting Lisbon to be at the top and currently challenging last year’s champions.
The “eagles” took the lead with Di Maria’s place kick in the 22nd minute, while Moussa was sent off in the 50th minute. In the 55th minute, Bozenic equalized in stoppage time, but Rafa Silva made it 1-2 in the 75th minute with a header into an empty net. In 91′, Bruno Lorenzo made it 2-2 with a penalty, but he was sent off at 90’+12′, but a mistake by the “eagles” in the center area gave Boavista the opportunity to counterattack in 90’+14 Bozenik in the four-four with Vlachodimos placed him precisely and gave the victory to the champions of 2001.
Even with an upset, Porto won 2-1 at the home of Moreirense and found themselves at the top of the standings. Fribong made it 1-0 in the 51st minute, Martines equalized in the 67th minute and Wendell gave the “dragons” the win in the 74th minute before being sent off in the 94th minute.
