Summary
The cup final started with an early goal on four minutes. Académica's Marinho scored the early goal to give the briosa the advantage. The goal came about as an unmarked Diogo Valente received the ball on the left hand side and crossed the ball into the box, where the ball fell to Marinho in the six-yard box, who headed the ball past Sporting goalkeeper Rui Patrício. Marinho's header saw him capitalize from Sporting's defensive mistake, as he was picked out unmarked in the box when the cross was delivered.
Following Académica's goal, Sporting began to dictate possession but found it difficult to create goal-scoring opportunities due to Académica's defensive approach. The first half ended with the advantage to estudantes. Following the break, the second half began with Sporting on the back foot following two clear-cut chances by Portuguese striker Edinho, who failed to beat Patrício one-on-one. Following these two chances, Sporting took control of the game which led to the creation of chances on goal. Their best chance of the game fell to Spanish winger Diego Capel, who could not beat Ricardo when the game was approaching its conclusion. Académica were able to close out the game and win their second-ever Taça de Portugal.Académica derrota Sporting e conquista Taça de Portugal Académica defeats Sporting and wins the Taça de Portugal http://www.abola.pt/nnh/ver.aspx?id=332279 A Bola 20 May 2012 25 May 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20120521215053/http://www.abola.pt/nnh/ver.aspx?id=332279 21 May 2012 dead
