Famalicão•DefenderFamalicão secured a vital 1-0 victory over Arouca in a match that came alive in the final stages. The contest remained largely uneventful through the first hour, with both sides struggling to create clear-cut opportunities. The game's complexion shifted dramatically after a series of substitutions from both managers around the 65-minute mark, injecting fresh energy into proceedings. Rodrigo Pinheiro emerged as the hero for the hosts, firing home a spectacular right-footed effort from outside the penalty area with eight minutes remaining, just moments after Arouca had their best chance through Dylan Nandín's effort that was brilliantly saved by Lazar Carevic. This victory will boost Famalicão's league position significantly, while Arouca will rue their inability to capitalize on late pressure before conceding the decisive goal.
