Benfica 2 - 1 Nacional



SL Benfica claimed the outright lead in the Portuguese SuperLiga this weekend - but champions FC Porto are hot on their heels.

Karadas strikes
Benfica were level on points with CS Marítimo prior to the seventh round of fixtures, and Giovanni Trapattoni's side claimed a 2-0 Sunday home win against CD Nacional. Azar Karadas filled in for the suspended Nuno Gomes up front for Benfica, and within two minutes the Norwegian striker had volleyed his team ahead. Substitute Tomislav Šokota headed in a Simão Sabrosa free-kick ten minutes from time to double the lead and ensure Alexandre Goulart's late free-kick was only a consolation for the visitors.



BENFICA - Moreira; Miguel, Luisão, Ricardo Rocha e Fyssas; Paulo Almeida e Manuel Fernandes; Simão, João Pereira (57’, Geovanni) e Zahovic (50’, Sokota); Karadas (84’, Bruno Aguiar).

NACIONAL - Hilário; Patacas (67’, Fábio Santos), Ávalos, Emerson e Cleomir; Cleber e Bruno; Marcelo (74’, Alexandre Goulart), Manuel Fidalgo e Serginho (74’, Adriano); Ferreira.

Goals: Karadas (62’), Sokota (80’) for Benfica, Alexandre Goulart (87’) for Nacional
