Portuguese League - Liga Portugal 2023/24

[Slow death]

With that, I immediately became hopeful that Benfica would come out victorious in this game. But the minutes of the game were passing and I didn't see any more goals, when the 84th minute of the game arrived and Benfica scored the second goal, I was convinced that Benfica would win this game. Then came the red card for the Braga player and in my opinion the referee acted very well in giving the red card.

The Braga player put emotions into the game and because of his anger he committed an unnecessary foul:

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/04/27/rZmCc.png

When a player has this type of attitude, it hurts the whole team, with the expulsion of the brada player because of his bad attitude, it made it easier for Benfica to score the third goal. Also the Braga player will not play in the next game. Now Benfica needs to pray for Sporting to lose tomorrow and in the next game and Benfica would have to win in all the next games if they want to be champions. It is still possible for Benfica to dream of the title 

If to look just at final score, it may look like easy game for Benfica, but actually it was so complicated as Benfica only took a lead on 85 minute. That red card and hard fould only show frustration of Braga player when his team is losing. Fortunately Di Maria wasn't injured because it could have ended much worse.
Watched about of Vitoria Guimaraes - Boavista yesterday. Wasn't most exciting game, red card didn't let Boavista to fight for positive result. While Guimaraes is still fighting for place in UEFA tournament.
Porto - Sporting already started, went witg BTTS and over 2.5 goals. Sporting can make another step towards title, while Porto needs win to get ahead of Braga. A bit strange that Gyokeres is left on bench.

Congratulations, you were right in your prediction, both teams scored and the game had 4 goals. It was a game in which Porto started very well, scored the first goal, caused danger to Sporting's defense and in the 1st half Porto scored the second goal and they came out of the 1st half winning without conceding a goal. I confess that I really thought that the game was already won and that in the 2 half all the port needed to do was continue playing as well as they were doing in the 1 half. When the 85th minute arrived I immediately thought that the game would end with Porto's victory, because Porto were winning the game by 2 goals. But I was shocked when I saw Sporting's goal in the 86th minute and in less than 1 minute Sporting scored the second goal, the Porto coach's irritation was visible on the field. With this draw from Sporting, I think Sporting is champion. I no longer see any remaining team being able to make Sporting lose points. Gyokeres was Sporting's hero in the game against Porto

I already thought that I lost my bets because for 85 minutes Sporting played poor game and didn't had any moments in whole game. But then, I have no words. This probably summarizes Porto season and why they're 18 points behind Sporting. Still, don't get why Gyokeres was realeased only after substitution.
If there was doubts about Sporting becoming champions, now it's all clear. 3 rounds remaining and they're playing against weak teams.

I think that if that Sporting player hadn't been sent off (which he was sent off well), Sporting would probably have scored the third goal. They were playing very well in the last 20 minutes of the game, and after equalizing they had everything they needed to score a 3 goal.

The match between Benfica and Braga is a big match in the Portuguese League that holds a long rivalry. For this kind of match you can see how intensed it was as the drama and excitement was never lacking in the match as the fans were both pleased whilst watching their team play. The match was pretty quite intensed and fierce and you can see that in the scoreline.

 ⁠Benfica though were able to go through to be able to secure a last minute win in the match despite all odds. They could find the back of the goal and you can see how frustrated the Braga players were after that goal. Talking about Di Maria, yes that foul was pretty hard and ordinarily, you’ll think he’ll be out already because of the weight of the inuury.

 Well he was able to still continue unharmed and that shows how strong he is. For the match between Vitoria Guimaraes and boavista, there was a red card in that match for Boavista which left them frustrated and the home team were able to take advantage of that event. Now this gives the home team the advantage to be able to get to an European competition next season and with the right mentality, it’s going to be quite possible.

 The match between Porto and Sporting was another thrilling match that still had its excitement, Porto were able to maintain the lead until Sporting were able to get a come back goal that got the match to draw. The goal scorer was really up and doing in the match and that showed his ability to be able to step in, with this result the match was able to keep up Sporting stand for the title as good strength. Well going forward I think this league truly has its own excitement and it’s becoming fun to watch now.

If there was doubts about Sporting becoming champions, now it's all clear. 3 rounds remaining and they're playing against weak teams.

Only a miracle could take the title away from Sporting, and I would never bet on that

And Sporting won't be able to beat the points record that Porto achieved in 21-22, with an impressive 91 points, but they can get very close, with a maximum of 90 points
It would be a historic mark either way and I think they can do it
The only games left are against Estoril and Chaves

The only interesting dispute is between Porto and Braga for third place, but unfortunately Braga lost their last game and it became very difficult

The only interesting dispute is between Porto and Braga for third place, but unfortunately Braga lost their last game and it became very difficult

Now Braga won game against Casa Pia in quite epic way 4:3. One of their players got 2nd yellow card, but despite it they scored goal on 90th minute and won the game. Offcourse, Porto is in better situation being 1 point ahead.
1 game is remaining today Famalicao - Benfica. Not expecting nothing interesting here as both teams already fight for nothing actually (I already don't count Benfica fighting for title.

[Slow death]

Sporting is unstoppable this season, it has a good attack and a good defense and with the easy victory achieved in the game against Portimonense I think that Sporting will become champions in the next game against Estoril because from what I see in the table, Sporting has already done 32 games and they have 84 points and there are only 2 games left for Sporting. while Benfica has played 31 games and has 76 points and only 3 games left. Even if Benfica wins in the next 2 games, they will have 82 points, and if Sporting wins in the next game, they will have 87 points, which makes it impossible for Benfica to catch up to Sporting in the last game even if Benfica won in the last game.

and looking at sporting's next opponent:



 

I predict an easy victory for Sporting and celebration for the title. unfortunately Benfica didn't do very well this season, they lost points in the clashes against Porto and Sporting, if they had won in the last games against Porto and Sporting, then they would be close to becoming champions. But in football, the team that makes a lot of mistakes doesn't become champion. Sporting was better than Benfica and Porto. so they deserve to win the title more than any other team. My question is what will be the future of the Sporting coach next season?

Wow, that could give Braga a lot of encouragement as they continue to fight for third place
the most incredible thing about all this is that the last game is Braga vs Porto, and it could mean the game that will define third place along with a spot in the Europa League group stage next season

It will be very interesting to watch this game (taking into account, of course, that the two teams will go into the last match with 1 point difference)

[Slow death]

I'm shocked that Benfica lost in the game against Farmalicao, and thanks to Benfica's defeat, Sporting became champions. Farmalicao is a team that in the last 4 games failed to win, but strangely in this game against Benfica, they managed to score 2 goals and didn't concede any goals, I'm wondering what happened to Benfica in that game against Farmalicao. seeing the Farmalicao performance in the table



I can't understand what happened to Benfica to concede 2 goals and lose in that game and Benfica didn't even manage to score at least 1 goal in that game, knowing that the fight for the title was still up for grabs, I hoped that Benfica would be able to get out of that game with victory. but unfortunately Benfica lost and with that defeat, they offered the title to Sporting and even if Benfica beat Farmalicao, Sporting would have won the title in the next game, they would just have to win in the next game.




Congratulations to Sporting, they had a good campaign this season, 32 games, 27 wins, 2 losses

Sometimes it seems like the coach is trying to get fired in order to earn a good compensation. So the idea remains that he set up the team in an uncompetitive way, and at the same time he didn't try to motivate the players.

But, Sporting was the most consistent team throughout the season and for that they are to be congratulated.

Soon, I will post the list of results and the current table. 

[Gencecikmen]

After second-place Benfica lost 2-0 at Famalicao, Sporting clinched the 2024 Portuguese Primeira Liga title with two games to spare. Sporting are at the top of the league standings with 84 points in 32 matches. Their city rivals Benfica have 76 points. Sporting have won their 20th Portuguese title, their first since 2021. Congrats Sporting Lisbon.

Yes, are absolutely right and because of Benfica failure, they failed to add points and on the other hand, the Week 32 match also showed that Sporting managed to win over Portimonense with score of 3 - 0.
This made Sporting 8 points ahead and because of this advantage with only 2 matches remaining, Sporting was crowned champion of the Portuguese League this season, this was good achievement after 2 season of failing to win the title.
By the way, congratulations to Sporting for winning the Portuguese League for the 2023/24 season and hopefully next season they can maintain it.

So far, only Sporting, Benfica and Porto have always taken turns winning the title or the 3 teams are the main competitors in the race for the title.
Soon the end of the season will start and instead of the transfer window, this provides an opportunity for every team to improve their quality by being busy with player transfers.
I hope that the Portuguese League can develop in future.

[Unsoldier]

Bravo Sporting! Congratulations to the club and its loyal fans for winning the Portuguese championship! Lisbon was all green this night. I watched the footage of the fans celebrating their team's victory, it's an amazing and beautiful sight. Sporting coach Ruben Amorim won the championship for the second time with his team. This is a significant moment in the history of the club and the coach of the team.

The Portuguese league have teams with higher impacts in the league games and European contests too. Benfica, Sporting, Porto are most impactful in this regard. Porto are doing well in the league and also have good performance records in the UCL too even though they weren't able to keep up with their good performance in their last league game which wasn't so acceptable. Same scenerio applies for Benfica and Sporting who's got their own record in the European cups too. Benfica have been doing well at securing the three points in most of their games with good goal margins.

 It only shows how set they are for the task put before them. Although a lesser performance isn't expected from them. Sporting are very much impactful in their games and Benfica too, the league seems less competitive as these teams unendingly saves the day for themselves and one would really wish there can be improvement as we'd love to see more clubs rising up to the contest before them and holding onto it fully. The league seems less competitive though as there are still weeks left and just these 3teams are trying to make good wave in the league.

 Over the years it's still these three that have been the most talked about because of the feats they've attained. One would be so sure to bet on these teams and their ability to keep progressing in points in their league games. At this moment, the upper handed team to lifting the trophy is Sporting and they've proven so far to be better than the other teams. There are still  games to be played and decided upon but it all seems maybe to end well as they are a good number of points ahead of the other teams on the table.

You are right, the Portuguese League is also part of several European competitions and those who qualify there can always perform very well even though in terms of winning the title team from the Portuguese League almost never reach the final.
However, their contribution is quite competitive and often makes it difficult for other team to have comfortable place or position to survive in the competition to avoid being eliminated quickly.
If they continue to develop well and add several efforts to improve the quality of play, it is very likely that in the future there will be several Portuguese League team who will win or become very strong team for European competitions.

It requires time, money and hard work, at least slowly the team here have to add players who are truly great and can play competitively to compete in performance with other domestic league teams which are currently developing very well.
Development of the Portuguese League is still quite significantly behind that of the English League, La Liga or Bundesliga and of course this is the basic reason why no Portuguese League team has been able to win several important European competition titles.

Of all the leagues under the European umbrella, the Portuguese league is one with steady impact in the continental contests. Even though in all time, they've not had a team in the league played to get to the final stage of the contest, they've still tried to make meaningful presence in the competition.

Benfica 5 - 0  Arouca

Benfica did very well in this game after the last game they lost and gave the title to Sporting, now Benfica needs to win to be able to guarantee that they finish in position 2, and with today's victory they already have comfortable points in position 2 and probably in the next game, which will be the last game of the league, they won't need to make an effort, they can use players who didn't have the opportunity to play this season. It was a season in which Benfica lost points when they played against big teams, it doesn't even seem like when they played against these big teams in the first games they had good results, they suffered humiliating defeats, despite the team managing to do well in games against weak teams

I consider this season to be disappointing for Benfica, the squad needs to be improved to a level that in European competitions they can go far and in internal competitions they can beat the big teams without having too many difficulties, I don't know if Benfica's management will maintain the current coach or not and I don't know what Benfica's new signings will be for next season, but I hope they can improve next season
