Francisco Trincão was very pleased with the Lions’ performance in the Sporting - Moreirense match. The green and white winger was named Man of the Match in the sixth round of Liga Portugal Betclic, where he won two penalties that led to the first two goals for the Alvalade club.
"It doesn’t matter much, what matters is that we won, and deservedly so, a tough game but we are happy with the victory", Francisco Trincão began, when asked what it meant to once again be named Man of the Match in the Sporting - Moreirense game.
The Sporting winger then spoke about the match and the many chances the Lions had during the first half: "The goal is to create opportunities, we know that if we create this many chances it’s just a matter of time, and in the end it was fair."
"We knew we would have the support of the fans, we felt it on the pitch. They believed just like we did, we’re happy (...) Yes, whoever comes in... we’re all more in sync, with more time to get to know each other. We have to take advantage of that," he explained, speaking about the importance of the fans and the new green and white signings.
He finished with a few more words about his season so far: "Every game is important, every game for Sporting is to win, so we’re already starting to rest and think about the next match (...) I try to help the team, with goals, assists, if I can’t, I give my all, defensively or offensively. Today I didn’t score but what matters is that the team won."
