FC Porto was defeated today by Vitória de Guimarães, 2-1, in the 28th round of the I Football League, with the Guimarães team remaining just two points behind the ‘dragons’, who recorded their second consecutive defeat.
At Estádio do Dragão, the Guimarães took the lead in the 12th minute, benefiting from an own goal by Galeno, and extended the advantage in the 33rd minute, through Jota Silva, with the same Galeno reducing for the ‘dragons’, in the 44th minute, in a game in which Pepe was sent off for protests and left FC Porto reduced to 10, in the 69th minute.
With this result, FC Porto, which already has six defeats in the championship, did not take advantage of Benfica’s defeats against Sporting and Sporting de Braga against Arouca, and is in third, with 58 points, two more than Braga and Vitória de Guimarães, both with 56, and nine fewer than Benfica (67), while the ‘lions’ lead with 71, and one game less.
Vitória de Guimarães, who in the middle of the week lost at home to FC Porto (1-0) in the first leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals, continues in a positive moment in the championship, with five consecutive victories.
