Two teams with the same goal, but from different paths. Aves SAD, which already lived in the coaching staff, was looking for the first victory of the time and Alverca wanted the second consecutive game to win, and for the first time away from home.
The rain pushed many supporters from the bench-the direction of the Avense emblem offered covers to visitors-but the few more than a thousand still vibrated with a vigorous entrance of João Pedro Sousa’s team, with four changes-highlight the fact that Gustavo Assunção entered directly in 11 after being hired as unemployed-who arrived early on the goal, with Pedro Lima to give the best follow-up of the ruler and the folding. Rivas.
The Ribatejans were pressuring, without, however, being able to create great danger with the goal to Bertelli’s guard. But the men of the house were uncomfortable and close to the break came the first great goal of the afternoon: following a corner kick, Alex Amorim filled the foot, outside the area, with the ball still playing and drawing a perfect bow for the draw.
It is true that it was raining, but it was a true bucket of cold water dumped on the air. In the reactive, with no changes in the Onzes, it was the Ribatejans to take the reins of the game and the second was not delayed. Lincoln (played a game) found Lucas Figueiredo inside the area, in a bid that was analyzed by VAR, but jersey 20 was at stake for 10 centimeters.
New axed in the intentions of the men of the house who no longer managed to take the game, denoting weaknesses in defensive organization, transitions and attack. João Pedro Sousa stirred in some pieces-Nenê, the eldest player of the league, at the age of 42, tried to make the taste on foot-but Custódio Castro showed that each journey his team-which has 30, read well, are thirty, more close and taking the course of tranquility in the return to the main echelon, 21 years later, and the entrance of Gonçalo Esteves was. in a game that hung for the Ribatejans.
The right-back, graduated from FC Porto, who also represented Sporting, came in very well, created imbalances and had superb execution: she tore off the right-hand corner zone, took several front players on the dribble and in a low shot we The game.
Aves SAD has conceded three goals for the fourth consecutive game, has the most beaten defense of the League (20), in what is one of (many) problems that João Pedro Sousa has to solve to relieve the rope that increasingly squeezes the team’s neck.
The figure of birds SAD: Pedro Lima

What the coaches said:
We feel impactful the goal in discounts in the first half, until the moment we live. We finished the first part to suffer a little, but, given the difficulties to form eleven, we had periodable periods. The second part began with the second goal, from there I saw a team that had not yet seen at the offensive level, improving immense finishing and shot. The result is fair, but maybe, by exaggerated numbers. Now it is working and recovering the mood of the players, trying to recover the lost points
We ended up being tight winners in a difficult game. We didn’t get in the game well, not aggressive, but the “timing” of the first goal [aos 45+4′] eventually benefited us. In the second half we were closer to what we have presented, we were better and we were just winners. It’s a good phase, with three wins in four games, but if you look back, we also played good games
