But when you think about how Deng Kai has openly declared his determination to go all out for the Champions League, can we also start talking about the treble?
Losing is losing, and there's no shame in losing to Manchester United, Real Madrid, or Bayern.
But if we win, that'd truly be legendary.
In the history of football, no team has ever won the treble two years in a row, including the mini-treble and the cup treble.
Uh, does saying this seem a bit inauspicious?
Anyway, it seems like Sporting Lisbon has always been creating miracles!
So why can't this year be one of them?
Yes, this season!
Bet on Skinner!
April 21, the thirty-second round of the Portuguese league.
Sporting Lisbon hosts Setubal at home.
This match had stirred some controversy before it even started.
Because Sporting Lisbon had fielded almost an entirely reserve lineup, except for the goalkeeper Reina.
