Sporting boost coffers with PSG win: All Champions League scenarios | OneFootball

Sporting defeated PSG, 2-1, last Tuesday night at the José Alvalade Stadium. In a match valid for the seventh round of the Champions League, the team led by Frederico Varandas continues to 'fill their pockets' with their participation in the lucrative competition.

The truth is that, besides adding three more points in the competition - essential for the standings at this stage -, the lions secured an additional 2.1 million - the amount for each victory in the league phase of the Champions League. Adding this amount to the victories against Kairat (4-1), Marseille (2-1), and Club Brugge (3-0), as well as the draw with Juventus (1-1), 9.1 million have already entered Alvalade's accounts.

Meanwhile, at this stage of the competition, draws earn 700 thousand euros, while victories are worth, as already mentioned, 2.1 million. Furthermore, even the final positions are rewarded, with bonuses ranging from 275 thousand euros to 2 million euros, depending on the ranking.

However, only in the next phase do the amounts start to increase: advancing to the round of 16 earns 11 million euros for qualification, plus 12.5 million in the quarter-finals, 15 million in the semi-finals, and 18.5 million for participating in the final of the competition.

With this victory – the 22nd in 31 matches this season –, the team led by Rui Borges has 13 points in the competition and is in 10th place in the standings. The next game in the international competition is scheduled for Wednesday, January 28, at 8:00 PM, against Athletic Bilbao, at the San Mamés Stadium.

The green and white team returns to the field next Saturday, December 24, against Arouca, in a match related to the 19th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against the team led by Vasco Seabra will be played at 6:00 PM, at the opponent's ground.
