Liverpool is intensifying interest in Sporting's Luis Suarez as a potential summer transfer target.
The Portuguese side started and finished strongly, with City goalkeeper Lee Gibson busy in the opening minutes. Having been under the cosh for 25 minutes, the SWPL leaders began to find some rhythm and stunned their hosts by taking the lead four minutes before the break. A deep free-kick from Lisa Evans was helped on by Kimberley Smit, with Kozlova ghosting in to finish from close range.
This is the biggest derby in many, many years. I believe there are five situations throughout history where Benfica and Sporting met in the penultimate game and both could be champions - Benfica won on four occasions, Sporting won the game and the title once.
