The winners of the Lion's Roar awards are now known. On the green night of Batalha, organized by the Sporting Nucleus of Leiria and the Sporting Museum of the district, captain Morten Hjulmand and mascot Jubas are some of the figures who will take an award home.
According to information shared by the official newspaper of the Alvalade Club, the 16 winners of the night organized at Quinta do Paúl have already been elected. In addition to the Danish team's main football captain and the lion mascot, Edson Valencia, Vasco Matos, and Rui Borges are some of the main highlights.
It's worth remembering the importance that Morten Hjulmand has had since his arrival at Sporting. With only two years of wearing the lion on his chest, the 'jersey 42' was elected captain of the main squad of the lions, besides being the owner of the midfield of Rui Borges' team.
Jubas - a figure that has already been profiled by our Newspaper - continues to delight fans and green and white members, regardless of their ages. The mascot of the Alvalade Club is a regular presence among the Sporting universe and athletes of various sports.
