After Sporting’s draw on Juventus’ ground (1-1), the Lions returned to Portugal two hours later than planned, as the plane carrying the team left Italy with a delay. Iván Fresneda, Zeno Debast, Nuno Santos, and Daniel Bragança are currently under the care of the medical department.
The starters from the match against the team led by Luciano Spalletti carried out recovery work, while the remaining players trained as usual on the pitch and began preparations for the match against Santa Clara.
Next Thursday, November 6th, the squad led by Rui Borges will return to training sessions, once again behind closed doors, in the morning at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, in order to prepare for the next match in the National Championship.
The draw with the ‘vecchia signora’ left Rui Borges’ men with seven points in the competition and, for now, in 10th place. The next game in the international competition is scheduled for Wednesday, November 26th, at 8:00 pm, against the Belgians of Club Brugge, at Alvalade.
The green and white team will be back on the pitch next Saturday, November 8th, against Santa Clara, in a match for the 11th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against the team led by Vasco Matos will be played at 8:30 pm, at Estádio de São Miguel, in Ponta Delgada.
