Ricky Pulls Through For Sporting CP. Lions' Flickering Champions League Hopes Still Alive

At Funchal, Portugal:


Ricky van Wolfswinkel penalty kick in the 76th minute proved to be the game winner as Sporting CP blew a two-goal lead, but then defeated CD Nacional 3-2 on the road in Sunday Portuguese Primeira Liga action.  The Lions (who have now assured themselves of at least a Europa League qualifying berth) trail Sporting Braga by six points with three games remaining for Portugal's third and final UEFA Champions League (third qualifying round) berth.
