Sporting won last Monday, September 22, against Moreirense, by 3-0. At the end of the match, there were several analyses of Rui Borges’ team’s performance, which, even among the green and white fans, ended up causing disagreement.
Jaime Marta Soares believes that this “was not a very successful game for Sporting”, with a “characterless first half, a very sluggish game. But then a completely different second half. The goals started coming and Sporting ended up winning well.”
Also speaking to the newspaper Record, Francisco Rodrigues dos Santos showed that he enjoyed watching the Lions, despite the missed goals: “Sporting’s excellent performance contrasted with the abundance of wasted chances. The result fairly reflects Moreirense’s game, but falls short of the superiority shown by the Lions on the pitch.”
Finally, Vanessa Oliveira focused on the attitude of the team from Moreira de Cónegos: “I thought Moreirense was walking on eggshells, it was complete anti-football. Then at the goal it seemed like it was pulled out by force, but in the end everything turned out well.”
With this victory – their sixth in eight matches this season – Rui Borges’ men reach 15 points in the Liga Portugal Betclic. The Lions thus climb to second place in the competition, behind Porto, who have 18 points, and ahead of Benfica, with 13.
