Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, a forward from Ghana, played well for Sporting B in their 1-0 win over Belenenses on Friday. He was named Man of the Match for his performance.
The 18-year-old, who played for the first team against Olympique Marseille in the UEFA Champions League and Varzim in the Portuguese Cup, was moved down to the B team before the game.
Issahaku stayed in the game the whole time and helped his team win by a narrow margin.
After beating the top team in the Portuguese third tier, Sporting is now at the top of the league table.
The highly-rated player will try to make Ghana’s team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. He scored the game-winning goal in September in an international friendly against Nicaragua.
