It was an afternoon of celebration at Jamor, with two great teams that wanted to win the Portuguese Cup, however, Porto was superior and deserved to win this trophy over Braga, ending the game with one expulsion for each side and two unanswered goals for the dragons.
This is the 19th Portuguese Cup won by Porto, a game played at Estádio Nacional do Jamor, a game played in the first half but poorly played, with many fouls and interruptions, the emotion remained for the second half of the match, with two goals and two expulsions.
André Horta opened the scoring with an own goal in the 53rd minute, the second was scored by Otávio, in the 82nd minute, which thus confirmed the revalidation of the trophy for the blue and whites. Wendell was sent off at 62′ and Niakité at 79′, both sent off with straight reds.
