Destaque do Sporting: Root (note 4)
15 Games 11 goals
Scored? No. But what he played and made play worth… for many goals! He is directly involved in four of the Lion’s five, with two assists for Edwards, a (clever) throw for Nuno Santos and a touch of class for Trincão to score. And even in Pote’s goal, he is the one who drags the defense and opens the lane at ‘8’. He just wasn’t in his day when it came to shooting. But he deserves forgiveness…
Adam 3
16J 17GS
Quiet game, with easy saves from shots by Holsgrove and João Marques. He conceded a goal again, but is free of blame.
E. Lent 3
5J 0G
Very confident and attentive, as well as strong in duels. Note the cut at 54′, almost on the line, avoiding Rodrigo Gomes’ goal.
Gonçalo Inácio 3
15J 1G
In Coates’s absence he donned the costume of… boss! Competent in the folds and put Marqués in the pocket. Strong in passing (96.3%). He almost scored with two headers.
Matheus Reis 3
15J 0G
It helped put Guitane out of the game. Up front, good work in the area in the 42nd minute.
Geny Catamo 3
14J 1G
One of those responsible for the lion’s good entry, with successive combinations with Edwards. He came close to scoring in the 26th and 57th minutes and even set up Gyökeres to make it 2-0.
Wheelman 3
14J 1G
Without an extended radius of action, it was regular. After a wrong pass to open, he improved and is involved in the 1-0 by unmarking Gyökeres.
Daniel Bragança 3
11J 1G
Without being exuberant, he was competent at all times. He didn’t miss any of the 18 passes he made until he left in the 52nd minute.
Nuno Santos 3
15J 1G
He looked hard for the goal… and was rewarded. After a hat attempt and two other dangerous shots in the 1st half, he took the shot – in P. Álvaro – to make it 3-0.
Edwards 4
15J 4G
He had merit for knowing how to be in the right place at the right time to score the first two goals, with his left foot and right foot. He even scored the hat trick but was denied by the post, again with the worst foot. And what he created… is not written!
Bring 4
16J 5G
His was the first sign of danger, with a kick on the half-turn, and he accomplished the warning in a move in which he did almost everything: he stole the ball from Koindredi and made ‘his’ passes to… the goal. In the final minutes he saw the post take away his double.
Trincao 4
13J 1G
Grand entrance. He led several quick attacks and it was in one of these moves that he shot hard and crossed for 5-0. Mangala denied him another goal.
Neto 3
5J 0G
Completed the defensive mission.
Esgaio 3
16J 0G
It refreshed the wing and lent some dynamics to the hallway.
Essugo 3
1J 0G
He made his debut in the championship. A cut on Heriberto celebrated by the stadium… like a goal.
Paulinho 2
15J 7G
In a good position in the area, Vital took the bread out of his mouth at the right time.
