Obrigado Conceição! Legend. Watching him cry gives me so much happiness. Conceição no Jamor já é tradição...
We were crap tonight though. The heat didn't help and they're very physical which ended up being the difference. Mathieu, best player on the pitch. Him, Renan, Acuña and Bruno are legends for tonight. Luiz Phellype, Raphinha and Coates with huge balls in those penalties too. We need to create a penalty-only tournament, at this point I'm pretty sure we're unbeatable.
I saw the Herrera handball for the 1-0 from the stands... they can't see it with VAR?? Ref gave us nothing after we went 2-1 up. It was ridiculous, they put pressure on the ref like no other team and it payed off.
Insane day though, truly an amazing feeling. I cried during the celebrations and was completely devastated when the 2-2 went in. There's nothing in football like going to Jamor, the atmosphere surrounding the stadium for hours is incredible and the fans of both teams should be proud. It really is a party for football.
Very good season for us at the end of the day, especially after everything that happened. Now let's build on it with a good summer that sees us get closer to challenging for the title because it's obvious the squad isn't good enough and with Bruno Fernandes leaving it is going to get even harder.
Vamos Sporting caralhoooo!
After days like these I'm pretty sure I won't actually be able to take it when one day we win the league again.
