One, two, three, we head to the Marquis. “Sporting” is moving forward, it does not stop, and even more so it needs leadership. Pote opened the party, Ghiokeres rediscovered ketchup, and Alvalade enjoyed another definitive victory, his eighth consecutive 80-point championship win. The end point is only a matter of time.
On Remembrance Day – even the kit was a nod to the 60th anniversary of the Cup Winners’ Cup triumph – it wasn’t old-fashioned Sporting, but rather Ruben Amorim-style Sporting.
It was the coach who discovered a luxurious striker in Zhenya Katamo, who failed to open the scoring only due to Borevkovich’s interference on the line. V. Guimarães, surprisingly without Jota Silva, pulled the lines well and held Sporting back. He did this there for half an hour. Braganza’s mobility opened up the Victorian wall, and Pedro Gonçalves took advantage of the surplus to fill his belly. 1-0. The party begins.
Please note that in the middle of the match there was a small blow: Franco Israel absurdly left the goal and took a penalty: he was saved by a previous offside. So, keep going, keep going, keep going.
And the one who doesn’t stop is Victor Giokeres – even in the five matches he played without scoring. Just before the break, the Swede pulled off a brilliant collective move: three boards and the ball in the hole. The strike was not final as Ghiokeres proved Ronaldo’s ketchup theory correct as he scored twice to seal the result. And then, it was a party until the end. The party he throws for the marquis. Just keep moving forward.
