The Brazilian enjoyed minutes against Gil Vicente FC
New Sporting CP signing Matheus Reis made his debut for the club this past Monday, coming on in the second half of the 1-2 turnaround against Gil Vicente FC in Barcelos.
Not only was it his first game for the Os Leões, but also a first official match for the 25 year old since September 24th of last year.
The Brazilian -on loan from Rio Ave until the end of the 2020/2021 season- had been working with a personal trainer before his move to the Estádio José Alvalade went through, and is aiming to be an important part of coach Rúben Amorim's plans for the rest of the campaign.
The defender reacted to his debut with a publication on social media, in which he said: "After five months, making my first appearance for this club and feeling the emotion of going out onto the pitch, as well as earning the three points, is priceless. We keep going at full strength."
