Salvador Blopa makes bold promise after Sporting v Alverca | OneFootball

Salvador Blopa had a dream night in the Sporting - Alverca (5-1) match. The ‘number 70’ for the Lions made his first start for the main team and scored twice, in a match that secured a place in the final four of the League Cup. At the end of the game, he promised to “keep working to be called up again.”

“I always believed in my dreams, I never thought this would come so soon. Very happy with these two goals, with my debut, but above all with the trust the coaches have placed in me, in us,” said the young full-back to SportTV.

“We are a very strong team, world-class, highly developed, this attention given to us and the opportunities that arise in the main team are very important,” assured Salvador Blopa, a product of Sporting’s Academy.

Asked whether he had earned a place in the first team, Blopa revealed: “I don’t know, we are young, we have a lot to improve, I don’t know if I met expectations, I will keep working to be ready if I’m called up again.”

Sporting will be back on the pitch this Friday, October 31, once again against Alverca. The match, counting for the tenth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Custódio, will be played at Estádio José Alvalade at 8:15 p.m.
