Luís Pedro Sousa ruthless towards Rui Borges: he doesn't know Sporting | OneFootball

Rui Borges, before the Portuguese Cup final against Torreense, said that Sporting had a “fantastic season” because of the football they played, even without winning any titles. Luís Pedro Sousa hit back and suspects the coach has no idea of the Club’s stature.

“I think Rui Borges never really understood what Sporting is. He got it wrong many times this season, including the color of the polo shirt at Jamor. When Rui Borges says that if he won the Portuguese Cup the season would be very good... that’s someone who doesn’t know what Sporting is,” he began by saying, in comments on the program ‘Record na Hora’ on Now.

The editor-in-chief of Record reinforced his opinion. “This Sporting cannot be satisfied with just a Portuguese Cup. However, incredible as it may seem, they did not even manage to win it. Sporting end this year without lifting a single trophy,” he said.

Even so, according to information from the newspaper Record, Frederico Varandas maintains full confidence in the 44-year-old coach and is not considering his departure. The Sporting president believes Rui Borges remains the right man to lead the project.
