“After Rodrigo Abascal's left-footed effort missed the target moments earlier, Gaizka Larrazabal pounced to score the only goal of the game, stunning Vitória and securing a memorable away win for Casa Pia.”

Outstanding performance
Casa Pia•DefenderVitória Guimarães will be left to rue a deeply frustrating evening at home, where 71% possession, 15 shots, and consistent territorial control yielded nothing but a defeat. Despite generating 53 dangerous attacks and forcing four saves from the Casa Pia goalkeeper, Vitória could only muster two shots on target all night — a damning indictment of their final-ball quality. Casa Pia, by contrast, were ruthlessly efficient in their low-block, counter-attacking approach: 29% possession, 61% pass accuracy, and seven counter attacks told the story of a side happy to absorb pressure and wait for their moment. That moment arrived in the 86th minute through Gaizka Larrazabal, who capitalised on a frantic late spell that had already seen Claudio Mendes Vicente's effort saved and Martim Guedes hit the post. For Vitória, this result deepens their mid-table malaise and raises serious questions about their ability to convert dominance into goals; for Casa Pia, it is a precious three points that could prove vital in their own end-of-season calculations.
