Luís Guilherme reveals tough spell at Sporting: It was a time... | OneFootball

Luís Guilherme scored again for Sporting in the rout against Vitória de Guimarães (5-1), in the 32nd round of the league, last Monday, May 4, and he did not hide his emotion at the end, after a difficult spell due to injury.

“Very happy to score another goal in this shirt. I want to thank God and my wife, who is always with me. It was a somewhat difficult moment; I was gaining confidence, playing more and more, and at an important time, before Bodø/Glimt, I ended up getting injured. But it was also a moment when I was able to reflect a little more. What I went through was not easy, but now I’m doing what I love most and helping Sporting,” he began by saying.

The winger also highlighted the importance of this personal moment, admitting to some pressure: “Very happy to score another goal. I have to admit it was a moment when I was a little nervous, because in the game against Porto I ended up not scoring, but thank God I was able to have that confidence now. That pressure is there every day, both in training and in matches, to get an opportunity and to keep scoring goals.”

As for what remains of the season, he was clear about the objective: “Until the end, until the last game. It was a very important win to give the team confidence. We were going through a difficult moment; we wanted the win, but we weren’t managing to get it. But now we want to finish in 2nd place, which is what remains for us this season, and win the Portuguese Cup.”
