I'm commenting late, but I was waiting for all the games involving the 3 big teams to finish before I could comment. I will start with the Farense game against Porto, this was a game that in my opinion the difference between both teams was in the efficiency of Porto's attack and the inefficiency of Farense's attack, while Farense created danger for Porto's defense but wasted goals , Porto did not waste goals at every good opportunity. If the Farense player had a good attack, then they would have achieved a draw in this game. Congratulations to Porto who played well and were very efficient in attack, a team should not waste every opportunity they have to score a goal. with this victory, Porto remains in third place and in the race for the title, it is still possible that Porto can overcome Benfica and Sporting, I say this because in the Portuguese league this is possible, if it were in the league of Italy, Spain, France and Germany I highly doubt that the second third place with a difference of 5 points would be able to overtake the top team
Amateur star played against Benfica, in a game in which I saw Benfica winning, but I confess that I was surprised by the fact that Benfica conceded a goal and were losing, it was a goal that could have been avoided by Benfica's defense. Benfica's goalkeeper saved the first shot, but when defending he returned the ball to the same player who shot the ball, and as Benfica's goalkeeper was leaving the ground, he had little space and time to save the second shot, as result the amateur star scored a goal. Still in the 1 half, the amateur star was very close to scoring the second goal, without a goalkeeper, the amateur star's attacker was unable to score the second goal. Benfica reacted and managed to score 1 goal and with that the game was tied, but it's funny that it only took 1 minute for Benfica to score the second goal and the 1 half ended. In the 2nd half, in the first minutes, Benfica scored the third goal, and then Benfica scored the fourth goal and won the game. In my opinion, the amateur star did well in the 1 half but the fact that they didn't take advantage of all the opportunities they had meant they left that game with just 1 goal
Sporting played against Casa Pia, I confess that this was a result that shocked me, how could a team allow them to concede 8 goals? 5 goals were scored in the 1 half and there was no player from the home team who had a red card, so they conceded 5 goals in 45 minutes even though they were playing with full players. in the second half there was only Sporting causing danger and scoring more goals. At the end of the game there were 8 goals scored by Sporting, I've been commenting a lot here about how Sporting has had a good attack in the last few games. It looks like it won't be easy for Benfica to overcome Sporting
5 points between 1st and 3rd place isn't much, considering that we still have remaining h2h games between these teams. Don't agree with you, if such situation would be in your mentioned leagues, fight for title still would be open. C'mon, we have almost half of season remaining.
Benfica conceding first against Estrela didn't looked like real threat. It would be different if their second goal would be counted, but there was offside. BTW, didn't understood why you're calling Estrela amateur stars, but yeah, this is how their name can be translated in English.
Sporting scoring 8 goals is serious statement. And it looked that they can score as many as they want, Casa Pia just didn't arrived to the game.
