Sporting is under pressure to win this Wednesday (4pm), at Pavilhão João Rocha, the fourth game of the final to prevent Benfica from celebrating its fifth championship.
“We will try to be stronger and take the decision to the fifth game”, stressed the Lions’ coach, João Coelho, referring to the previous derby, in Luz, which the team lost 3-1. “We can be better than we were.”
Even if they don’t play at home, Benfica doesn’t want to waste the opportunity to close the title score this Wednesday. If there is a fifth game it will be in Luz, on Saturday. “We have an opportunity now, let’s go with everything”, stressed Marcel Matz, coach of the eagles, but noting that his team cannot be in a “rush to resolve”, but must play “a concentrated game”.
In the women’s category, this Wednesday, yes, there will be a champion, with the decision taking place at Dragão Arena (9pm) between FC Porto and PV2014/Colégio Efanor.
