GROUP D REVIEW: With emotion until the last second, Sporting CP win by one in Lisbon (29:28) and conquer two points in this European competition
 

With the game of cat and mouse marking the beginning of the match, the success of the Swiss team to get ahead of the horn at half-time was the goalkeeper. Kristian Pilipovic was on fire and made a couple of great saves.

However, the best was yet to come. In an ending inappropriate for the faint of heart, Sporting CP overcame and Gassama was the big hero. The Spanish player scored eight goals in eight shots, and his last goal came in the last move of the match.
