O Sporting welcomes Moreirense this Friday and has the opportunity to spend the night alone in the championship lead. The goal is clear: to win to press Benfica.
In a championship where title candidates have lost many points, Rui Borges stresses that if Sporting wins, it will be for the team’s merit and not for the weakness of the opponents.
One of the themes that marked the week was the unusual expulsion of Conrad Harder in the Azores. The coach believes that there is no reason for a suspension of the striker.
In the squad, Morita continues to recover from injury, but, contrary to what was reported, may still return this time. The recovery requires patience, the same one that is asked to Pedro Gonçalves, who has competed again in the last game.
Sporting hosts Moreirense at 8:30 pm this Friday. In case of victory, it puts pressure on Benfica. However, on the first lap, it was Moreirense to win 2-1, at a time when Rui Borges was not yet coach of the team.
