Sporting CP U19 snatched a dramatic victory in the dying moments of this UEFA Youth League encounter, capitalizing on Puskás Akadémia's numerical disadvantage. The Portuguese side took the lead through Flávio Gonçalves early in the second half, but Attila Budai's equalizer on 66 minutes looked to have earned the Hungarian hosts a valuable point. However, Máté Csiszár's red card for a professional foul as the last man in the 90th minute proved catastrophic, as Miguel Almeida immediately punished the 10-man home side with what would be the winner. The result keeps Sporting's Youth League campaign alive while dealing a significant blow to Puskás Akadémia's hopes of progressing from this crucial fixture.
