Eduardo Barroso cites lack of attitude, backs Rui Borges after Sporting loss

Eduardo Barroso, a shareholder of Sporting CP, said there was a lack of attitude after the 1-2 defeat to S.C. Torreense in the cup final. He defended head coach Rui Borges, stating that the coach is in the right place.

The loss to Torreense ended Sporting's campaign in the competition. The match concluded with Torreense scoring two goals to Sporting's single reply.

Barroso described his outlook as seeing the "half‑full glass" despite the setback. He highlighted that the club's overall direction remains positive.

Sporting will look to improve attitude in the next league fixtures. Barroso's confidence in Rui Borges suggests continuity in the coaching staff.
