C R D Santaluziense v Lusitano FC

The team, from Santa Luzia took on top of the table giants Lusitano FC from Vila Real de Santo Ant�nio. To say they were giants was literal as well as metaphorical. They stood inches above there opponents and certainly used there extra height to good affect in all but taking the lead.

In a scappy game Lusitano dominated the first half but were unable to breach the Santaluziense. Scores were level 0-0 at the break. The second half began much the same as the first with Lusitano exerting considerable pressure on the home goal only for the inspired form of the Santa Luzia goalkeeper to keep them at bay.

A number of changes for the home team seemed to spur them on but despite more possession, their attempts to beat the league leaders with guile rather than brawn failed to create any meaningful chances.

It was left to the away team to take all three points with a scrambled goal late in the game. This enabled Lusitano still flying high and maintaining their position at the head of the table and pushed C R D Santaluziense closer to the bottom in 13th position.
