Returning from CAN 2025, in which he served his country, Geny Catamo started with everything in Sporting’s reception to Casa Pia (3-0) in Alvalade and scored twice in the first half. The Mozambican was very satisfied with the three points won and highlighted the team, despite the two goals.
«Yes, I’m very proud of the work I’ve been doing and I also missed coming home here to help the team in pursuit of its third championship. Now it’s time to continue working and maintain my focus and determination to continue helping the team win until we reach the end, which we would all like to celebrate together”, he began by saying, speaking to Sporting TV, explaining the moment of the second goal.
«It’s a moment of inspiration, but Inácio and I have already talked about the training session where they play with a line of 5 and I, as a winger, always had the obligation to look deep, to understand the game, and it happened at the moment: we had the opportunity and Inácio managed to put in a beautiful pass for me and I managed to convert it into a goal. That’s what I also said, that the team’s work is good and it’s about continuing to improve what we did last year, in the first round. Now it is the beginning of the second round and we are in the new year, we believe that the results could be different from the first round», stated the winger, pointing to a better second round to reach the isolated leader FC Porto.
«Look at it the same way, remain focused and work on what the manager wants and what the team produces. It’s up to me to work properly, prevent injuries and everything. Now we have to focus on the championship, which is our biggest objective, we know what our position is, but we don’t deserve it, we deserve it even more. We believe that with a little dedication from the entire group we can go even further», he guaranteed, analyzing the lions’ 3-0.
«We were always superior, we had a little difficulty at the beginning, but then we adjusted and took over the game, we had a good result in the first half and in the second we didn’t give any chances. That’s what Sporting is, what our group is and now it’s about continuing our work, day by day, getting to the game and showing results”, he concluded.
