Portugoal.net – LISBON, FC Porto defeated Tondela 3-1 at Est\u00e1dio Nacional to lift their 18th Ta\u00e7a de Portugal, sealing a domestic league and cup double in the process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To say Os Drag\u00f5es<\/em> were heavy favourites going into the final would have been an understatement and so it proved as the recently crowned Primeira Liga champions proved too strong for relegated Tondela.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two Mehdi Taremi goals as well as a Vitinha effort proved the difference, Neto Borges netting a consolation goal for Tondela.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two teams could not have gone into the match with more contrasting fortunes, Porto recently lifting the league title while Tondela agonisingly suffered relegation from the top flight on the final day of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tondela set up more defensively to cope with Porto’s superior firepower and they frustrated their more esteemed opponents in the early stages of the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However Mehdi Taremi opened the scoring in the 22nd minute, converting from the penalty spot after a lengthy VAR consultation finally penalised Tondela\u2019s Marcelo Alves\u2019 handball in the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porto picked up from where they left off in the second half as they increased the pressure on their opponents, Pep\u00ea denied a second goal by a miraculous Niasse save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minutes later though Vitinha capped a fine individual campaign by doubling his side\u2019s lead with a well-worked goal, exchanging passes with Pep\u00ea before firing low and in at the near post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ever-impressive Pep\u00ea continued to torment Tondela and won Porto another penalty after being adjudged as brought down by Modibo Sagnan. Taremi this time though was unsuccessful from the spot, seeing his effort rebound off the post and to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 73rd minute Tondela stunned the watching crowd by pulling a goal back completely against the run of play, Salvador Agra\u2019s cross met by a bullet header from full back Neto Borges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The one goal margin lasted mere seconds however as Taremi made it 3-1 with Porto\u2019s next attack, coolly slotting past Niasse after a superb lofted through ball from Ot\u00e1vio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neto Borges almost set up a tense finale in the 81st minute, but the Brazilian was denied a second goal by the crossbar. Tondela gamely refused to give up the ghost thereafter with a spirited end to the match but ultimately Porto closed matters out to claim the cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The perfect way for S\u00e9rgio Concei\u00e7\u00e3o and his side to close out a memorable campaign in Porto’s history.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
