48' Pereirinha, 75' REYES (pen.)
Taça da Liga, final,March 21, 2009
Surprises-
--- Goalkeeper Quim in goal for Benfica. His last game was one month and a half ago, (2-1, V. Guimarães, semi-final Taça da Liga) and almost 4 months last game in the championship (2-2, against V. Setúbal, at the Da Luz).
-- Sporting goal from Pereirinha. He was in the starting lineup today because Izmailov is injured therefore unavailable.
(Ataque de Vukcevic pela esquerda, a deixar a bola com muita classe para Caneira, que cruza para o centro da área, onde Liedson remata ao poste da baliza. A bola sobra depois para o jovem médio Pereirinha, que remata sem oportunidades de defesa para Quim. Está feito o primeiro no Estádio do Algarve.)
