Vítor Pinto stunned by Sporting star: he pulled the strings | OneFootball

Sporting began the new season with a 2-0 victory over Monaco in the Cinco Violinos Trophy, in a match that also served as the team’s official presentation to the fans. The win left Vítor Pinto with plenty of positive signs, and he pointed to Jesse Derry as the standout figure of the night at Alvalade.

"The Lions confirmed against Monaco the good signs seen against Celtic and Strasbourg," said Vítor Pinto, writing in the newspaper 'Record'.

The English signing scored one of the goals and received glowing praise from Vítor Pinto, who put him at the center of attention: "Among several standout performances, Jesse Derry ultimately emerged as the violinist of the night thanks to an exceptional goal."

: "The kid with a Beckham-like look showed that he did not come to Alvalade just to be closer to the fellow countrymen who flock to the Algarve, and he could be a positive factor in Sporting’s season of change as they look to return to winning immediately."
