Sao Tome are looking forward to put up a better performance against Macau (China) when they clash in Group 'A' league football match of the Lusofonia Games at Tilak stadium in Vasco tomorrow.

Sao Tome was cruising on with 1-0 lead until Sri Lanka's Johar Zarwan equalised in the dying minutes to hold them to a 1-1 draw.

The team, which is one point behind table-topper Sri Lanka (4 points), now needs a draw against Macau to qualify for the semifinals.

On the other side, Macau, who lost to Sri Lanka, needs an outright win to make it to the last-four stage.
