<br><div> <p style="margin-bottom:11px"><em><strong>In analyzing the 4-0 victory over Rio Ave, Rui Borges was already asked about the coming month after this, which was Sporting's last game in 2025. The Trás-os-Montes native already has the League Cup in his sights.</strong></em></p> <h2 style="margin-bottom: 11px;">Calendar</h2> <p style="margin-bottom:11px">«January will still be braver than December, in terms of games. January will be even worse. The players want to compete in the League Cup final. They want to play. It's more difficult for me, with so many absences it's more difficult for me to rest some of the people as we wanted. It is what it is. January will not dictate anything about the outcome of the championship. There is a second round, there is a lot of game to run.”</p> <h2 style="margin-bottom: 11px;">Malleability in attack</h2> <p style="margin-bottom:11px">«We always try to be a balanced team in every way. In the first half, Simões was more in a second line space. In the second part I asked him to be more than two to two. Furthermore, offensive dynamics is something that we train. The game itself is very mobile. And then there is their individual quality. They know what to do. Macro behavior is collective, then comes individual behavior. No matter how mobile he is, he knows what he has to do.”</p> <h2 style="margin-bottom: 11px;">Bet on Flávio Gonçalves</h2> <p style="margin-bottom:11px">All young people are prepared. He gives us things that are very specific to his qualities. There are many more that could be called. Team B is having a great championship. I do what I love most, it seems like I'm 'pissing off' Sporting, but I'm not. I love what I do. Many more come.”</p> </div>
