Even though it was difficult, Benfica remained within the “trick” of winning the Primeira Liga. The “eagles” of Lisbon won 2-1 at the home of the tail-enders Firenze for the tenth game of the Portuguese league thanks to the goal of Vangelis Pavlidis in the 54′ and reduced to -8 again from the top and the spineless compatriot, Sporting Lisbon, hoping to they “steal” the “crown” from her, leaving the home team firmly in last place.
Poveda in the 19th minute surprised the Lusitanians and made it 1-0, but the Laz players turned the tables with Alvaro Fernandez in the 21st minute and the international Greek striker in the 54th minute.
Rio Ave did not manage to take a big “breather” with the 2-2 draw at home with Casa Pia, after being at +3 from the danger zone and leaving the guests at +6 both from Europe and from the dangerous positions at the same time.
Boavista was at +3 from the danger zone, which “passed” 2-1 at the home of Gilles Vicente and left it at +4 from the last three.
