Goal from Ivanildo splits the points in Famalicão

Usually an away draw in Ledman LigaPro is a good result, but Sporting B could have come away with more this Wednesday..

It was however the hosts who got off the the stronger start and their 14th minute goal courtesy of Diego Medeiros was largely deserved, following a fatal error from Guilherme Ramos at the back.

From then on it was all Sporting, while Familicão looked little more than a shadow of the team that burst out of the blocks for the start of the encounter. Leading the Alvalade search for an equaliser was the 16-year old Elves Baldé, creating havoc for the duration as part of an attacking pairing with Leonardo Ruiz.

Sporting B finally drew level in the second-half through the centre-back Ivanildo Fernandes, who made the most of the rebound after an effort from range from Guima. João de Deus' side continued to pile on the pressure, but Vítor Braga had an inspired finish to the encounter to keep the points split.
