Leiria floods swamp Sporting Museum, I'm devastated | OneFootball

Bernardes Dinis, founder of the Sporting Supporters' Club of Leiria and curator of the Sporting Museum in that city, took to social media to report the damage caused by the floods in the space that houses numerous items related to the Alvalade club.

"Dear Sporting fans. I am completely devastated," he began on his Facebook account, lamenting, with the help of photos from the site, that various areas of the Museum were completely flooded and that it took a lot of work to solve part of the problem.

"When I arrived at the Museum - as always - at seven in the morning, I was faced with a scene that brought me to tears. The space at the top, that is, right at the entrance, was completely flooded with water that spread to other corridors on this floor. I looked, cried, but had to do something. I fetched buckets, mops, cloths, and who knows what else to remove all the water that now only runs into the buckets. I had to dry the mops with a hairdryer so that the floor would dry quickly. But, another surprise, on the lower floor I had to remove some paintings because the water runs down the walls."

Bernardes Dinis, at the end of his post, left a message of resilience in the face of adversity. "I ask, what else is going to happen. I did my work with emotion, sadness, and revolt. A shout LONG LIVE SPORTING," he concluded, ending his post.

Last week, the lions defeated Arouca, 2-1, during storm Ingrid, which created poor conditions on the pitch. Even so, the team led by Rui Borges triumphed, with a goal by Luis Suárez in the last minute.
