Regular Season Round 26: Sporting - Benfica 73-89

Date: March 23, 2022
Another interesting game was a derby match between two local teams from Lisbon: Benfica (#2) and Sporting (#3). Sporting was smashed at home by 16 points 73-89 and even the fact of playing on their own court did not help. Benfica made 19-of-25 free shots (76.0 percent) during the game. Benfica outrebounded Sporting 38-27 including 23 on the defensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 25 assists. Naturalized Cape Verdean Ivan Almeida (198-1989, college: Stonehill) notched 23 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists to lead the effort and Tunisian Makram Ben Romdhane (205-1989) supported him with 14 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. Even 16 points and 8 rebounds by American-Ivorian forward Mike Fofana (206-1997, college: HSU, agency: One Motive Sports) did not help to save the game for Sporting. American point guard Shakir Smith (194-1992, college: ASU) added 13 points and 5 assists for the hosts. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Benfica have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain second position with 19-3 record having just two point less than leader FC Porto, which they share with defeated Sporting.
