00:01Week three in Portugal, Sporting looking to make it seven points from nine so far.
00:08Alverca looking for their first win all season.
00:18There's a man down in midfield, it's Maxi Araujo back on his feet quickly, the Uruguayan.
00:23And that's a brilliant shot, what a start to the game.
00:28Sporting in front, and it's the captain for the night, who has scored a glorious goal.
00:42Rui Bosch's team got off to a fast start at home to Vitoria last time out.
00:49Even quicker out of the blocks this time.
00:55Not a great World Cup for Uruguay, but on a personal level, it wasn't too bad for Araujo with a
01:00couple of goals.
01:01Look, he went down right in front of the referee, didn't get his free kick.
01:05Gone up quickly and scored a cracking first goal of the season.
01:14Beautifully paced past the keeper, Mateus Mendes curled into the corner.
01:20Sporting Club de Portugal won.
01:22Alverca nil inside two minutes in Lisbon.
01:31A little shy of 20 million.
01:35Salazar, Sporting, paid 30 million euros for him.
01:41Araujo claiming a handball.
01:45And off Nabil Tuayzi for Sporting's first corner of the night.
01:50And off Nabil Tuayzi for Sporting's first corner of the night.
02:17A little slow to realise.
02:27Nice one driven across.
02:29Well, that was dangerous.
02:34Figueiredo, the skipper.
02:38From the angle, hoping for a touch.
02:41And Vivaldo Semedo.
02:42Suarez.
02:44Now, that looked like a foul, but luckily for Alverca and Yaya Bojang there.
02:52Gambian number four.
02:55The outside flag was raised.
03:07Suarez with 28 league goals last season.
03:10Top scorer in the Ligue of Portugal.
03:12Having played at the World Cup where it was first introduced.
03:17Tadio Verissimo counting down from five to zero.
03:23That's Luis Suarez.
03:25Soon wins Sporting a free kick.
03:27Quinta.
03:30Quinta.
03:33That's pretty careless from the new signing.
03:37Eleven.
03:38Seven players.
03:4021 or under.
03:41Figueiredo at 25.
03:43One of the most experienced.
03:45And the Brazilian drawing a foul.
03:47Not a good challenge this.
03:48From Geni.
03:51And it's earned him a yellow card.
04:09Geni gets it to Flavio Gonçalves.
04:11Flavio Gonçalves.
04:14Flavio Nouçalo.
04:17Couldn't take that one in his stride.
04:22I appreciate it's the pass from Flavio.
04:26The crowd did too.
04:41and it's young
04:43Flavio Gonsalves
04:44and his free kick
04:46and the keeper Mendes worried
04:52good attempt, it was dipping
05:03earlier today, Maritimo
05:04came back from 2-0 down
05:06at home against Academico Miceu
05:10Maritimo
05:11top of the table
05:13as a result
05:14another card on the way here
05:20Altimira
05:21suggesting to Fabio Verissimo
05:23that this one
05:24might be reviewed for red
05:28I think the referee
05:30got it right first time around
05:36and the Evorian
05:38Davy Guy
05:40is the latest player to go in
05:41Salazar
05:43towards Bar
05:44good header across
05:45it's come out to Flavio Gonsalves
05:47good save
05:49now Luis Suarez
05:51just well struck
05:54well watched
05:55by the keeper as well
05:56Gonsalves
05:57coming close
05:59Flavio
06:00with that
06:01defending to do
06:02Chisumba back inside
06:03shot comes in
06:05it's on target
06:05Figueiredo
06:08testing
06:09Rui Silva
06:10Figueiredo
06:11testing Rui Silva
06:23Figueiredo's free kick
06:25flicked on and
06:28better contact there
06:29from Nabil
06:30to Isi
06:32and it could have been
06:33one all
06:35well find it
06:39Alverka come close
06:43again
06:44side
06:45in the lead though
06:46brilliant goal
06:47from Maxi Araujo
06:48for Sporting
06:49after just two minutes
06:51they're worth
06:53their lead
06:53at the break
06:54Sporting one
06:55Alverka nil
06:56here's the halftime score
07:03Sporting lead
07:04and they start
07:05the second half
07:06looking to add
07:07to Maxi Araujo's goal
07:11Tabast
07:12playing it long
07:13for Genni here
07:14but no joy
07:15on this occasion
07:15for the home team
07:17and should now suggest
07:18he's going to be replaced
07:19when the ball next
07:20goes out of play
07:23Genni
07:24lovely dummy
07:25oh it's in
07:29enough for keeper
07:30Mateus Mendes
07:33that will go down
07:34as an own goal
07:35you'd imagine
07:37but all credit
07:39goes
07:39to Genni
07:40Catamo
07:51Los Sporting
07:52have the second goal
07:54they wanted
07:55looking
07:56to make this
07:57a comfortable
07:58second half
08:02Salazar
08:03gone it across
08:04to Genni
08:05his feet
08:06were
08:06too quick
08:07for James
08:10and he got a bit
08:11of luck
08:11in the end
08:12but
08:13we'd argue
08:14he deserved it
08:16it would have been a goal
08:17anyway
08:17and the keeper
08:18not going to touch there
08:19because Flavio Gonçalves
08:20was close by
08:21for Sporting
08:22it's unfortunate
08:24for Alverka
08:24the visitors
08:25fall further behind
08:29Sporting 2
08:30Alverka 0
