ANDl alirón of Sporting CP 19 years later! left bad news in ‘key Spain’: Pedro Porro retired injured with obvious gestures of pain at 17 ‘, leaving his place to Joao Pereira.
The winger / winger on loan from Manchester City was key in Rúben Amorim’s 1-3-4-2-1, both for his offensive projection and for his ability to ‘squeeze’ rivals: Sporting is the least thrashed with 15 goals received in 34 days. In attack, his four goals and two assists in all competitions have been ‘gold’ for the ‘lions’.
He marked, not in vain, the goal that gave Sporting CP the victory in the League Cup finalagainst Braga (1-0). What’s more, he was chosen ‘Defense of the Month’ in Portugal three times in a row: November, December and January.
The injury, however, has ‘caught’ him at a bad time. The former from Valladolid and Girona has planned undergo an MRI to find out the extent of the muscle injury to his left leg. With Sporting CP, already champions, he will not play again this season: they face Benfica at home and Marítimo, away.
