Moreirense snatch late draw at Guimaraes

Tiago Andrade's opener looked set to secure Moreirense a shock point until T. Borevković struck deep into stoppage time.

Moreirense took the lead shortly after the break through Tiago Andrade, putting Guimaraes on the back foot. Just as it seemed Moreirense would hold on for a famous win, T. Borevković rescued a point for the hosts with a dramatic goal in the sixth minute of added time. This result defied Fipster's high-confidence prediction of a narrow home victory, turning what looked like a straightforward win into a shared spoils affair.
