Fotis Ioannidis struck in the 42nd minute with a precise header, setting Sporting CP on their way to a 4-1 victory at Vitória S.C.
The Greece forward attacked Ricardo Mangas' inviting cross and glanced his finish into the bottom left corner (42.), a clinical moment that gave Sporting clear control before the interval.
After the restart he continued to link play, occupying centre-backs and creating lanes for runners, before making way late on (84.). His presence kept Vitória pinned back whenever the Leões pressed high.
Ioannidis' all-round output underlined his influence: one goal from his sole attempt, three key passes, 10 possession regains and four tackles. That blend of penalty-box threat and graft helped Sporting manage transitions and tilt the game their way.
With the result, the Leões remain second in Liga Portugal. They host Rio Ave next. Vitória S.C. visit Casa Pia.
