The recovery was halfway: Moreirense wins the second leg but falls, Desp. Chaves returns to the Premier League

in six days everything changed. Smiles turned to tears, sadness turned to contentment, what seemed like a closed door opened the window of opportunity, what was an escape tunnel turned into a dead end.

On the one hand, the Moreirense. It wasn’t up to you to hold a place in the play off access to the next League, resolved the Vizela issue early, waited for what happened in Tondela and celebrated when, four minutes from the end, Boavista managed to tie the game. After several misfortunes that accompanied the team, from the goal conceded to the chess players in the 90th minute to a missed penalty at the end of the game in Estoril, there were reasons to celebrate after the win in a Minho derby.

Today, Sá Pinto’s tears were of joy: Moreirense wins the derby and goes to the playoff, Tondela and Belenenses SAD go down to the Second League

on the other, the Exp. Keys. That depended only on you on the last day of the Second League, that you played in Vila do Conde with the leader Rio Ave, that you suffered in the first minute, that you had some opportunities to reach a tie and reopen the discussion, which ended up losing by 3-0 breaking a final streak of six wins and two draws (one of them with a missed penalty in added time) and entering the playoff for access to the next League seeing Vila-Condenses and Casa Pia celebrate in Matosinhos.

Emotions, nerves, decisions: Rio Ave is crowned champion and Casa Pia also returns to the Primeira Liga 83 years later

In the first leg, Trás-os-Montes gave the best response less than a week later, receiving and thrashing the canons 2-0 with a goal from João Teixeira in the first quarter of an hour and a great individual shot from the plenary. -João Correia back in the middle of the second half. . There was a party for the Flavienses on the pitch and in the stands, there were tears from some Moreirenses on the bench. However, there were still 90 minutes left to find out who it would be the 18th and last team of the Primeira Liga of 2022/23.

“This team has been killed multiple times this year. I remember we were five points from play off and the six of direct salvation. We have shown several times that, in the face of adversity, we can overcome ourselves. Once and for all we have to play with the image of what we did in those games and with the image of the people of the town of Moreira de Cónegos, who see themselves as hard-working, fighter and humble people, who make great sacrifices and want to win in life . That’s our motto”, highlighted Sá Pinto, who missed the game again due to suspension. “For me it is a great injustice to be away. This GNR captain, Orlando Mendes, was highly irresponsible. You must have superman ears to hear what you say you heard. It was impossible in the middle of that stadium. He is a great liar. He will be against everything and everyone. This makes us stronger, more united”, he also referred to the reasons that led to this punishment.

And Moreirense still outlined that reaction, with a goal from Paulinho in the middle of the first half that gave another hope to the local fans who, together with the almost full bench of Trás-os-Montes, almost filled the Estádio Comendador Joaquim Almeida de Freitas . However, until the end Chaves spending was able to maintain this minimum margin between the usual “time burning” in these circumstances and ensured his return to the top flight of Portuguese football three years later.

“There is an immense joy in the soul, after much emotional exhaustion. We started the season with difficulties, the cases of Covid-19 and the injuries. We played since November on a knife edge because we had games behind and we were 13 points behind. We were resilient and came into the last ride believing we could go straight up. I do not pass. we had to go to play off, against a good team, and I think we were better in both games and the promotion is fair. I am very satisfied with what we have achieved. I dedicate the climb to the fans, to whom I am very grateful”, Vítor Campelos, the coach who led Desp, told SportTV at the end of the match. Keys of the Premier League.

“In the first half we weren’t being that aggressive, in a good way, and we didn’t have the courage to have the ball. We did some things well at the break and the second half was different for the better. Throughout the game there was more dominance by Moreirense, but the flagrant chances were ours. I leave a few words to the institution of Moreira. Since I was a child I used to come to see the Moreirense games, it was the club that opened the doors for me in the League. Some people from Moreirense are some of the best I’ve ever met in football,” he added.
