High voltage game in a career. Sporting & Sp. Braga drew 3-3 in a great football performance. Either team could win the match, so the result is fair. Judging by the way both teams gave their chest under the bullets, no one deserved to lose either.
Sporting were three times ahead on the scoreboard. And for many others, he had neither the art nor the ingenuity to keep the result. Which immediately shows that Ruben Amorim has enough material in this game for laboratory analysis within a week. Despite the fact that he was at the front three times, the green-and-white formation was always very vulnerable. And it led to a final draw in what was a paradigmatic move: Ricardo Esgayo, who had replaced Trincao shortly before to close the right flank (after a 3-2 in the 83rd minute that Edwards seemed to be definitive), ended up widening the running track. which Alvaro Djalo took advantage of by quickly changing speed to offer a 3-3 score to Abel Ruiz.
After rewinding the tape, the game began feverishly: between 9 and 18 minutes, three goals were scored. First from Pote, after Porro’s deadly cross. The imbalance, however, began with a punching pass from Matheus Nunez to the Spaniard.
Sp. Braga, who even started the game well, did not give up. And he took advantage of a Sporting defence, the first of several, to get even with Banza. The highlight of the game was reserved shortly after, when Nuno Santos scored a great volley after a fantastic shot by Matheus Nunez.
Another draw came near half-time after an interesting tu here, tu lá when Niakite scored with a header, once again taking advantage of the weaknesses in Sporting’s defense.
In the second half, Sporting tried to slow down a bit, and Sp. Braga looked more expectant. But side-to-side changes rocked the game again. There are still emotions to give and sell. Horta, having given his last in Braga, had a great opportunity, Porro hit the crossbar with a rebound, and even after the already commented goals of Edwards and Ruiz, Adan still saved Sporting’s point at Vitinha’s feet.
Ruben Amorim: “Emotional game”
“It was an emotional game, a lot of goals, a few dangerous moments, but we had to control the game better. We had the advantage a few times, but we always let Braga get back into the game,” said Sporting manager Rubén Amorim.
Arthur Jorge: “There was character”
“We demonstrated the magnificent character of “Sp. Bragi.” We reacted very positively to the game with a high quality team. With this attitude, we will always be closer to victory, and this is what we want in every game,” said Artur Jorge. , coach Sp. Braga.
game analysis
Pros: Great game
A football match with six goals and uncertainty on the scoreboard from the first to the last minute always deserves an outstanding rating. Both teams gave themselves to the game, and thanks to the guys in the stands and in front of the screens.
Negative: Poor Ricardo Esgayo
Ricardo Esgayo, who came out in the final minutes to cover Sporting’s right pass, was inextricably linked to losing his team’s lead as he was overtaken by Alvaro Djalo. Whose fault?
Arbitration: Verissimo with errors
Al Musrati came out of a hard hit on Matheus Nunez with a yellow card that didn’t feel like much. In the 62nd minute, Verissimo unsuccessfully awarded a penalty for the alleged absence of Sequeira in Pot. VAR was there to reverse the decision.
