will remain in charge of Pafos. The Cypriot club announced the renewal of the Portuguese coach’s contract for another season, with an option also included to extend the deal for a further year.
The club’s board highlighted the “dedication and professionalism” shown by Sá Pinto since his arrival, considering those factors to have been decisive in the team’s progress during a crucial stage of the season. The Portuguese coach won his first trophy with Pafos after just six matches in charge.
It should be recalled that the Cyprus Cup final against Apollon Limassol ended in a 2-0 victory, but it was also marked by moments of great tension after the final whistle. The match involved several players and members of both teams, including former Sporting players Bruno Gaspar, Lazar Markovic and Pedro Marques, who play for Apollon.
Amid the confusion on the pitch, Ricardo Sá Pinto was eventually sent off after becoming involved in the incidents that marked the end of the match. Even so, the Portuguese coach claimed the sixth title of his career and convinced the Pafos officials to continue backing a project that has already begun to produce positive results.
