Sporting completed a total of 59 interceptions. Their defensive discipline helped them to cling to their narrow lead. Pedro Porro finished the match with the highest number of interceptions for Sporting. He made 13 interceptions.
Tottenham Hotspur would be disappointed that they dropped points against Sporting. Their thin run of form continues, and the road ahead doesn’t look very bright for Antonio Conte and his players. They will need the key players to step up to the occasion if they need to go forward in the competition, as they will be facing better teams.
