Primeira Liga: Nacional 1 Sporting 1

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.

However, the hosts appeared hungry for an upset at Estadio da Madeira and were able to claim a point as Sporting failed to win for only the second time in 11 games.

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.
