Tomás da Cunha did not overlook the Sporting - Moreirense match, which ended in a solid 3-0 victory for the lions. The sports commentator praised the construction of Rui Borges' team, but noted that Ricardo Mangas and Luis Suárez were 'complicating' the task.
"With Inácio, Debast, Hjulmand, and Kochorashvili in the initial passes, Sporting has an easier time finding Pedro Gonçalves and Trincão. Quenda improved the connection from the right to the inside. Suárez (in finishing) and Mangas (in crossing) narrow the difference in the score," he remarked during the match.
At the end of the match, Tomás da Cunha again used his account on the 'X' platform to highlight the importance of Francisco Trincão: "Playing well or not so well, Trincão's personality development over the last two seasons has put his career on the right track. He maintains the tendency to solve problems individually (dribbling/shooting), understanding Sporting's moments of difficulty. He handles the pressure."
With this victory – the sixth in eight matches this season – Rui Borges' team reaches 15 points in the Liga Portugal Betclic. The lions thus rise to second place in the competition, behind Porto, which has 18 points, and ahead of Benfica, with 13.
Sporting will return to the field next Saturday, September 27, against Estoril, in a match related to the seventh round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against Ian Cathro's team will be played at 8:30 PM at the Estádio António Coimbra da Mota, the opponent's ground.
