Sporting made to wait for title after Benfica earn derby draw
Sporting will have to wait until the final day of the Primeira Liga season as they bid to retain their title after being held to a 1-1 draw at second-placed rivals Benfica on Saturday. The Portuguese capital pair started the match level on points but Sporting, with the advantage due to their head-to-head record, edged closer to a 21st league title when Francisco Trincao fired them into the lead after four minutes. Benfica equalised in the 63rd through Kerem Akturkoglu's tap-in from close range after Vangelis Pavlidis sliced through Sporting's defence with a dazzling solo run, bringing the home crowd at the Estadio da Luz back to life. Sporting remain in pole position and will clinch the title by at least matching Benfica's result on the final day. They host Vitoria Guimaraes while Benfica visit Sporting Braga in what will be a dramatic conclusion to the season next Saturday.

Sporting draws at Benfica and the Portuguese league will be decided in the final round
LISBON, Portugal (AP) — The Portuguese league will be decided in the final round with Sporting Lisbon and Benfica level on points after the crosstown rivals drew 1-1 in a potentially decisive derby on Saturday. Sporting could have clinched the title with a victory at Benfica, while the host could have also been proclaimed champion with a victory by two goals. The stalemate means Sporting, which holds the head-to-head goal advantage thanks to a 1-0 win earlier this season, only needs to match Benfica's result next weekend. Benfica must win and hope Sporting doesn't. Sporting struck first when Francisco Trincão scored four minutes in. The forward was set up on the edge of the area by Viktor Gyökeres. Muhammed Aktürkoğlu leveled in the 63rd for Benfica. Greek striker Vangelis Pavlidis dribbled past five defenders inside the area before assisting his teammate to knock in the equalizer. Sporting host Guimaraes in the final round next weekend, while Benfica is at Braga. ___ AP soccer:
