September’s top footballer comes from Sporting, find out who 👀 | OneFootball

Carolina Santiago was elected the best player of September in the Women's League, becoming the first winner of the individual award this season. The Sporting player has been one of the main figures of the team led by Micael Sequeira, having been distinguished twice as 'Woman of the Game' in the past month.

The 19-year-old footballer has so far been a totalist in the national championship. The U-19 international for the National Team scored a hat-trick against Damaiense (6-0), and again found the back of the net in the following round, in the victory over Valadores Gaia (2-0).

Her performance earned her the preference of the captains of the ten teams competing in the championship, gathering almost all the votes. The player received the trophy this Monday, at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, presented by Ana Teixeira, ambassador of the League.

Just last week, Carolina Santiago renewed her contract with Sporting until 2029. The striker is having a fabulous start to the season and earned the trust of Frederico Varandas and the rest of the lions' structure to extend the contract she had (Remember HERE).

The green and white emblem now turns its attention to the Euro Cup, after being eliminated in the Champions League playoff against Roma. Sporting's next match is scheduled for Tuesday, October 7, against the Swedish team Rosengard, at 19:45, in Alcochete, in the first leg of the second round.
