In an intense encounter between Boavista and FC Arouca, the visiting team secured a 3-1 victory, largely due to their efficient attacking and disciplined defence. Arouca capitalized on their early goal, setting the pace with a strike in the 51st minute. Boavista managed to equalize in the second half, but their momentum was short-lived as Arouca swiftly retaliated with two decisive goals within three minutes, at 84 and 87 minutes, respectively.

Statistically, FC Arouca maintained a balanced offensive strategy, reflected in equal corner counts and identical offsides with Boavista, yet managed to convert their chances into goals more effectively. This clinical finishing was a key difference, as Boavista struggled to convert opportunities into goals despite having similar stats in terms of attempts. Boavista's attacking efforts were frustrated by Arouca's midfield and defensive organization, which remained resilient despite accumulating seven yellow cards, indicating their physical approach to breaking up Boavista's play.

Defensively, Boavista was challenged not only by a disciplined Arouca attack but also by their own lack of discipline, evidenced by receiving four yellow cards and a crucial red card. Boavista's defence was under continuous pressure from Arouca, as shown by their higher foul numbers (14 to Boavista's 8), which often disrupted the home team's rhythm and resulted in the critical sending-off that shifted the match further in Arouca's favour. Overall, while Boavista demonstrated potential in spells, Arouca's consistency and sharpness in key moments proved decisive in securing the away victory.
