Rui Borges was featured on the Instagram of Pedro Cardoso, owner of Solar dos Presuntos, a well-known restaurant in Lisbon. Starting a two-day break granted to the entire Sporting squad and staff, the Mirandela coach took the opportunity to visit Portas de Santo Antão, where he ended up receiving high praise, shared on the mentioned social network by the well-known fan of the green and whites.

"Today I, the oilman, had the honor of taking a photo with a colleague of mine, the tavern keeper, and it wasn't after hours... We all wish to be like him, honest, a leader of men, and believing that in life the most important thing is family!" wrote Pedro.

The coach's visit to the capital comes at a time of pause in activities at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy in Alcochete. Rui Borges decided to reward the squad and staff with two days of complete rest following the latest sports commitments. This break serves for the physical and psychological recovery of the players before entering the decisive cycle of competitions ahead.

The 44-year-old coach and his technical team are expected to continue emphasizing set-pieces in training sessions at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, something that was crucial in the narrow victory against Famalicão (1-0), at the José Alvalade Stadium.

It should be noted that the green and white team will return to the field on February 21, against Moreirense. The match, part of the 23rd round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Vasco Botelho, will be played at 6 PM, in Moreira de Cónegos.
