Alvalade bows out of CERH European League with dominating performance against Spanish giants
Sporting CP said one final farewell to this season's CERH European League with a 6-3 win against Reus, who had so far remained unbeaten.
Pedro Gil stole the limelight on the night, netting on three occasions. Alex Rodriguez put the visitors ahead after 13 minutes, but five minutes later Caio leveled. Just before the interval Rodriguez again struck to take the Spanish side in leading at the break.
The second-half was an avalanche of Sporting CP attacking play. First it was Caio again equalising (31'), before Marin scored Reus' third and final of the night.
Up stepped Pedro Gil, scoring three times in as many minutes to secure the final result.
