3-1. Rio ave get one just before halftime. Nothing we could really do there. The ball took a huge deflection on Bruno Gaspar which fooled Renan. But we have looked much better defensively and Rio Ave havent really threatened much.
Goals keep pouring in. Unbelievable. Keizer has surpassed every expectation. Honestly dont think Ive ever seen a more exciting Sporting.
Just realized Gelson Dala is playing on Rio ave, he has had a few interesting plays. Rio Ave just had a couple real good chances which they should have scored. Mathieu off for Pinto. Makes sense, give Mathieu a rest and Pinto needs to be in form for Sunday as Coates is suspended.
GOLO !! Diaby makes it 5-1 with his 2nd of the game and 6th of the season. Again its that man Bruno Fernandes
Another great performance from Bruno Fernandes. If he keeps this pace it won't be long until he's on big spenders' shopping list, if he's not already.
We get Feirense in the quarter-finals of the cup. The game will be played away. Other matches are Guimaraes vs. Benfica, Aves vs. Braga, and Leixoes vs. Porto In the semi-finals, if we win, we would face the winner of Guimaraes vs. Benfica.
Starting XI: Salin, Ristovski, Coates, Mathieu, Acuña, Gudelj, Wendel, Bruno Fernandes, Nani, Raphinha, Bas Dost.
We really should be winning by now. Dost with a shocking miss from 2 yards. Nani with a free header over the bar. Feirense is pinned back.
GOLOOOO! Bruno Fernandes with another long-range powerful shot to make it 2-0 within a couple of minutes.
Phellype almost had his debut goal but his shot from outside the box crashes against the post and goes out.
Waiting for @SCP21 to chime in with a negative response, however, since we won, I'll temper my expectations. Great game.
