Rui Borges confirms it! Three starters out for Sporting v Moreirense | OneFootball

Rui Silva, Ousmane Diomande, and Geny Catamo will miss the Sporting - Moreirense match of the sixth round of the National Championship. The confirmation was given by Rui Borges, the coach of the green and whites, in the preview of the reception to the formation of the cónegos.

"Rui Silva, Ousmane Diomande, and Geny Catamo are out of the game", assured the leonine coach, who was promptly questioned if the absence of the Mozambican would lead to more space for Geovany Quenda, the 'number 7' of the Alvalade Club.

"Quenda has been a starter, so I don't know what space you're asking about. He's a kid who has been training well. He wasn't a starting option in the first rounds, but he is now. Maybe they see the opportunity due to Geny's absence, but it might not be related to that", stated Rui Borges.

For the coach, the Sporting prodigy "has been responding" well to what is asked of him: "Maybe, since the first round, he was the first player who left me with more doubts for the starting eleven. We chose to continue with what we achieved in the first games, that's all. I'm happy to be able to count on Quenda, above all".
