Sporting and Porto march into last eight of the Portuguese Cup
09 January 2024
Sporting and Porto booked their place in the quarter-finals of the Portuguese Cup with convincing 4-0 victories tonight against Tondela and Estoril respectively.
The Lions easily brushed aside second-tier Tondela at Alvalade, with Pedro Gonçalves and Viktor Gyökeres netting a brace apiece.
Porto were expected to be given a far tougher test against Estoril, but the much-improved Dragons exacted revenge against the team that had beaten them twice in recent times. Evanilson was the star of the show scoring a hat-trick, with Galeno rounding off a highly satisfactory night for Porto.
The tie of the round takes place tomorrow night as Benfica host Braga at the Estádio da Luz.
Sporting 4-0 Tondela (Pedro Gonçalves 11’, Pedro Gonçalves 16’, Viktor Gyökeres 37’, Viktor Gyökeres, 46’)
Estoril Praia 0-4 FC Porto (Evanilson 24’, Evanilson (pen) 31’, Evanilson 56’, Galeno 76’)
