Rodrigo Roquette blames two for Sporting draw: They let Estrela in | OneFootball

Sporting’s draw against Estrela da Amadora (2-2) in the opening round of the league is still generating reactions in the Sporting world. After the Lions had built a two-goal lead, Rodrigo Roquette took to social media to comment on the team’s performance and assign responsibility for the final result.

Sporting came out for the second half with greater efficiency and made it 2-0, with Rodrigo Zalazar opening the scoring and then setting up Fotis Ioannidis for the second. However, Rui Borges’ side allowed the opposition to react, and Estrela managed to come back and share the points.

In Rodrigo Roquette’s view, the turning point in the match was linked to refereeing decisions and a mistake by Sporting’s goalkeeper: "The referee and Rui Silva put Estrela back in the game," he wrote on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

The commentator’s remark comes amid criticism of João Gonçalves, especially over the incident that led to Estrela’s first goal. (Read HERE).
