Rodrigues dos Santos: Sporting’s perfect display vs Moreirense | OneFootball

Sporting won this Saturday, 3-0, at Moreirense's ground, thanks to goals from Francisco Trincão (52'), Geny Catamo (56'), and Luis Suarez (75'). At the end of the match, several personalities evaluated the performance of the team led by Rui Borges in Moreira de Cónegos.

José de Sousa Cintra, former president of the lions, was not surprised by Sporting's stance: "It was what was expected. Sporting couldn't drop points and achieved a well-deserved victory, without any doubt or dispute. Now we must hope that Sporting continues like this, winning with all the will and fairness, aiming to achieve the goal of becoming champions again."

Also speaking to the newspaper Record, Carlos Xavier offered strong praise and expressed satisfaction with what he saw: "It was one of the most complete games I've seen from Sporting this season. They were commanding and controlled from start to finish, created numerous opportunities, and displayed very fluid football, from foot to foot, with all players involved in both offensive and defensive moments. A full victory and a complete performance."

The opinion matched the words of Francisco Rodrigo dos Santos, who called it a "perfect performance" by Rui Borges' pupils. "Sporting made it look easy to play at a difficult ground. Absolute dominance, competitive maturity, and goals to taste. If this seriousness becomes the rule, the three-peat stops being an ambition and becomes destiny."

With this victory – the 28th in 38 matches this season – the team led by Rui Borges now has 58 points and remains in second place in the Liga Portugal Betclic standings. Porto (59) is in first place, with one less game. Benfica is third with 55.
