Match

Summary

Despite some opposition from Académica, because of the proximity of the academic exams, and even though Sporting CP expressed the desire to play the final at Coimbra (where they won their semi-final match against FC Porto), the match was played at Santo Stadium, the new ground of Farense. It was also a sportsman from Farense, Eduardo Vieira, who was assigned as referee.

Only 12 minutes had passed since the beginning of the game when Francisco Stromp put the ball into the net from Carlos Fernandes's cross. In the 18th minute, a penalty was awarded to Sporting CP for an handball on the sequence of a corner kick, which Joaquim Ferreira converted successfully. Still in the first half, Francisco Stromp was injured and left the ground.

Sporting CP lined up with 10 men for the second half but scored the final goal from another penalty in the 53rd minute, again converted by Joaquim Ferreira. Some time later, Francisco Stromp was able to return to the game, which finished 3–0 for Sporting CP.[1][2]
