Nthe city of Chaves, Svensson inaugurated the marker at 21 minutes and Wilson restored equality at 40. In the second part, Davo jumped from the bank and ‘bisou’, scoring two goals in three minutes, at 79 and 82, and then Gabriel Silva reduced to 85, ‘sealing’ the departure accounts.

 

Although the Desportivo de Chaves has entered the match better, more intense, organized and pressing, especially in the first 15 minutes, after an upward phase of the visitors and several threats to the goal of João Valido, Penafiel even inaugurated the marker, placing himself in advantage with a goal of Max Svensson, ‘offered’ by the defensive transmontana.

Already with the balanced match, the hosts restored equality, with a bike kick irreprehensibly executed by Wilson, at the entrance of the area.

In the complementary stage, the whole of the first half remained, with the game controlled and balanced, although with more offensive bids of the visitors, who again put themselves in advantage of the entry for the last 10 minutes, with a goal outside the Davo area, indefensible for the Flaviense guardian.

Three minutes later, the Spanish advanced came back to taste on foot, ‘scaring’ the third goal of the Penafiel with a shot placed.

When everything seemed decided and the stands of the Municipality of Chaves were getting stripped of transmontan fans, at 85, still away from the area, Gabriel Silva ‘filled the foot’ and fixed the result.

The Desportivo de Chaves fought until the end of the match, in search of the draw, but Miguel Oliveira did not falter and hold the victory of the Penafiel between the poles, allowing the ‘red-blacks’ to rise to the leadership of the II League, with 22 points, more than the Sporting B, classified, which faces Tondela on Sunday.

In turn, the transmontans added the second consecutive defeat, occupying the 17th and penultimate post, in a demotion zone, with eight points.
