Torreense Makes History: Secures Spot in Portuguese Women’s Cup Final Four

Torreense secured a ticket to the final four of the Portuguese Women’s Cup last weekend, achieving a remarkable feat under the guidance of Pedro Nobre. Defying the odds, they overcame the formidable Santa Marta Eagles, ensuring their presence in Sines.

This historic achievement distinguishes the Torres Vedras team. Marking the first instance since the 2015/16 season that a district championships team has reached the final stages of the Queen’s Test. The current leaders of the first division of AF Lisboa boast five victories in the competition. Prior to their triumph over Águias Santa Marta, Torreense eliminated four other teams: CRD Miratejo, Farense, ACD Santo Estevão, and August 3, 1885.

This outstanding performance places Torreense among the select group of district championship participants. Who have embarked on a glorious journey to the final stage of the competition. The last team to accomplish this feat was EDC Gondomar almost eight years ago, competing in the first division of AF Porto.

The significance of Pedro Nobre’s team’s achievement is heightened by the fact that it occurs in an era with the existence of a second national division. On March 29, Torreense will strive for an even more historic milestone. Should they triumph over Futsal Feijó in the semi-final, they would become the first team in history to reach the final of the Portuguese Women’s Cup as a district championship team.

Lusitânia’s Historic Debut in Liga Placard Against Benfica

Lusitânia made history in the Azores by playing in the Liga Placard for the first time, 11 years after Operário. They faced the mighty Benfica and, despite a strong effort, lost 3-6. Benfica showed their intentions early, with Léo Gugiel scoring in the fifth minute from midfield. The home team grew bolder, and Enzo equalized with a stunning top-corner goal. Two minutes later, Jacaré redirected a cross from Arthur, putting Benfica ahead again. Sandro Silva then capitalized on a loose ball to make it 2-2 before halftime. Debutant head coach Cassiano Klein urged his players to step up. Carlos Monteiro scored in the 23rd minute and Chishkala added another in the 26th. Lusitânia proved resilient, reducing the deficit with two goals from Enzo, a standout former Magnus player. Despite their intense effort, Benfica proved their title contender status, extending their lead with goals from Afonso Jesus and Ivan Chishkala. The game saw more chances from both teams, but the emotional and physical toll made it hard for Lusitânia. Nevertheless, their positive debut marks the return of an Azorean team to the top division.
