Sporting were already assured of a second-placed finish prior to Saturday's game, while Nacional's position of fifth was also in no danger.

Islam Slimani could have doubled Sporting's advantage shortly before the hour mark when he scooped over the crossbar, and Nacional made him pay in the 76th minute.
