Midfielder scored the 64th goal for the lions and surpassed the record of the current Manchester United midfielder who was missed in Alvalade
It was already known that it was a matter of… time. And Pedro Gonçalves’ goal against FC Porto made the record official. The 25-year-old midfielder, in his 151st game for the Lions, scored his 64th goal for the Lions’ club and surpassed Bruno Fernandes, former captain, one of Sporting’s best-scoring midfielders in recent decades.
An important record for Pedro Gonçalves (who, despite having already celebrated against the Dragons for Famalicão, made his debut wearing the Leonine jersey during the celebrations) scored his 6th goal of the season, being the third in the hierarchy of attackers behind Gyokeres ( 17) and Paulinho (9).
Alvalade’s victory also marked a round number for Nuno Santos. The 28-year-old left-footer made his 200th appearance in the top tier of Portuguese football. At the service of four clubs: Benfica, Vitória de Setúbal, Rio Ave and Sporting. In this period, in the League, he scored an impressive 28 goals, 28 assists and two national titles (Benfica and Sporting).
