Sporting, Vitória SC really impressed Roquette: one of the best... | OneFootball

Sporting’s thrashing of Vitória de Guimarães (5-1), in a match counting for the 32nd round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, last Monday, May 4, sent out positive signals and earned praise from several figures linked to the Sporting world.

Amaral, a former player, highlighted the team’s efficiency: “Sporting started well, took their chances, and secured a comfortable result. It’s a style of play that, when things go well, makes the players look like different players. A consistent and clinical game in the final third.”

Meanwhile, Rodrigo Roquette underlined the attacking quality on display: “This was one of Sporting’s best attacking performances this season, with some moves of enormous technical quality. There were important returns, and there was also greater physical and mental freshness.”

Finally, Carlos Xavier also spared no praise: “It was a complete performance, with beautifully crafted moves, from which two or three goals came. It was made clear that Sporting were the best team playing football in Portugal this season.”

The green-and-white side will return to action next weekend, on May 9/10, against Rio Ave. The match, for the 33rd round of the Portuguese league, against the team coached by Sotiris Sylaidopoulos, will be played in Vila do Conde, with the date and kick-off time still to be confirmed.
