Nigerian forward, Saviour Godwin scored a stunner to seal his side victory against Rio Ave on Sunday afternoon and lead his team towards European qualification.

Saviour Godwin had a chance to put his team in the lead in the first minute of the game but his effort was blocked by the defenders.

Ten minutes later, he set up his teammate Lucas Soares but his shot was parried away by the goalkeeper to keep the game goalless.

With the Nigerian really troubling the opposition, his half volley from 30 yards out in the 13th minute just skipped past the post.

Late into the first half, Rio Ave had their first clear chance but Leonardo Ruiz effort went wide.

In the 66th minute, Saviour Godwin received the ball and dribbled the defender with his control before excellently roofing the ball into the net to break the deadlock.

The match ended 1-0 in favour of Casa Pia AC who are now 64h in the Portuguese Primera League table behind Braga, Porto and Benfica.
