Sporting hit by three absences in training after Benfica derby | OneFootball

Sporting trained on the morning of this Saturday, December 6th, at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy in Alcochete, recovering from the draw in the eternal derby against Benfica (1-1), to begin preparations for the Champions League match against Bayern Munich.

The medical report still lists the same three injured players: Zeno Debast, dealing with a problem in his left knee, along with winger Nuno Santos and midfielder Daniel Bragança, both in the final stages of rehabilitation from severe injuries to their right and left knees, respectively.

The starters at Estádio da Luz underwent recovery work, while the remaining players trained normally under the guidance of Rui Borges. Geny Catamo, who was hurt after a hard tackle by Gianluca Prestianni at the end of the match and left the stadium limping, completed recovery with his teammates.

The team will train again on the morning of Sunday, December 7th. Currently, Rui Borges's team has 32 points and remains in second place in the Liga Portugal Betclic standings. Porto (34) is in first place but has played one less game. Benfica is third with 29 points.

The green and white team will return to the field next Tuesday, December 9th, against Bayern Munich. The match, part of the sixth round of the Champions League, against the team led by Vincent Kompany, will take place at 5:45 PM at the Allianz Arena.
