Bragança named MVP in Sporting win, but some disagree: Geny deserved it | OneFootball

Sporting opened the 18th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic with a clear victory over Casa Pia, 3-0, at Alvalade. A convincing performance by the leonine team that earned praise from various figures associated with the green and white emblem.

Vanessa Oliveira highlighted Geny Catamo's performance: "Good game and a good return to victories for the players' confidence,” said the presenter to the newspaper 'Record', lamenting the disallowed goal: “I wish Geny's third goal hadn't been annulled, it was the right decision, but he deserved it. He should have been the man of the match, but it was good for Bragança.”

Sousa Cintra was fully satisfied with the team's performance and the result achieved: “Victory more than deserved, in a fantastic game. I am satisfied, the team showed their spirit and must continue like this. We have the responsibility of the championship and the Portuguese Cup, with a tough challenge on Tuesday.”

Miguel Garcia preferred to emphasize the importance of some returns to the leonine eleven: “Besides victories, in football sometimes it's important to highlight the returns. Especially after so much time with Bragança. We must highlight his return and the goal, in a fair victory for Sporting.”

At the moment, Rui Borges's team now has 45 points and remains in second place in the Liga Portugal Betclic standings. Porto (49) is in first place but has one less game. Meanwhile, Benfica is third with 39 and also has one less match played.
