Pundit tears into Suárez and Mangas after Sporting v Moreirense | OneFootball

Ricardo Mangas and Luis Suárez were two of the targets of Tomás da Cunha in his analysis after Sporting's triumph against Moreirense, by 3-0. Despite the praise for the performance of the green and whites, the sports commentator believes that this duo fell short of expectations.

"With Inácio, Debast, Hjulmand, and Kochorashvili in the first passes, Sporting has an easier time finding Pedro Gonçalves and Trincão. Quenda improved the connection from the right to the inside. Suárez (in finishing) and Mangas (in crossing) hold back the difference in the result", he noted, still during the match.

At the end of the match, Tomás da Cunha used his account on the platform 'X' to remind of Francisco Trincão's importance: "Playing well or not so well, Trincão's evolution in personality over the last two seasons has put his career on the right track. He maintains the tendency to solve problems individually (driving/dribbling/shooting), understanding Sporting's moments of difficulty. He handles the pressure".

With this victory – the sixth in eight matches this season – the team led by Rui Borges reaches 15 points in the Liga Portugal Betclic. The lions thus rise to second place in the competition, behind Porto, which has 18 points, and ahead of Benfica, with 13.

Sporting will be back on the field next Saturday, September 27, against Estoril, in a match related to the seventh round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against the team led by Ian Cathro will be played at 8:30 PM, at the Estádio António Coimbra da Mota, the opponent's home ground.
