Rui Borges opted to once again leave Georgios Vagiannidis and Geovany Quenda on the bench. Sofia Oliveira once again questioned the choices of the coach of Sporting, stating that the duo should be starting instead of Iván Fresneda and Geny Catamo.

"It's almost comical that it took 63' to realize that the Vagiannidis/Quenda duo was the only one capable of being at the level of this game", can be read on social network 'X' (formerly Twitter). Georgios Vagiannidis and Geovany Quenda were brought into the match, minutes after the first goal of the game scored by Luuk de Jong (61').

As our Journal exclusively revealed, Chelsea is not at all pleased with the management that Rui Borges is giving to Geovany Quenda. The English are unhappy with the few minutes given to the young winger trained at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, bought by the blues from Sporting in the middle of last season.

Recently, Sofia Oliveira commented on the possibility of Jota Silva becoming a reinforcement for Sporting during this summer's transfer window and ended up criticizing the Portuguese winger: "It's not that I'm a big fan of Jota Silva. I don't think he will have an impact on Sporting. He's a very intermittent player. He ruins several plays", said the sports commentator.

The green and white emblem will take the field again only on the weekend of September 13/14, against Famalicão. The match, counting for the fifth round of the National Championship, against the team led by Hugo Oliveira, will be played in Minho with the date and time yet to be determined.
