Sporting play first friendly in Alcochete (2-1); find out who scored | OneFootball

Sporting continue their preparations for the 2026/27 season and held an internal training match at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, in a session that brought together players from the first team and the B team, continuing the pre-season work overseen by Rui Borges.

The match lasted one hour, split into two 30-minute halves, with players from both squads spread across the two teams, so the result did not distinguish a winner between the senior side and the reserve team.

A total of three goals were scored during the training session, with Paulo Cardoso, Flávio Gonçalves (who could be the big surprise) and Gabriel Silva getting on the scoresheet in a game that ended 2-1. The match mainly served to maintain a competitive rhythm and allow the coaching staff to observe several players in this early stage of preparation.

It should be remembered that the green-and-white club began pre-season work on 1 July, so it is still awaiting the return of some international players, who are away with their national teams at the World Cup.

After this joint training session, the Sporting squad will benefit from a day off, returning to work on Sunday before continuing preparations for the first summer friendlies, which include clashes with Celtic, Strasbourg, Monaco and Nottingham Forest.
