Sporting 4-1 City: Was That Ruben's Man Utd Debut?
Hold up, folks! You read that right. Manchester United fans, get ready to lose your minds because it looks like we might have seen a glimpse of Ruben Dias in a United kit!
Okay, so maybe not literally (he's still under contract with City), but it felt like a debut for the Portuguese defender. You see, in a pre-season friendly against Sporting CP, the Portuguese side absolutely blitzed City 4-1!
Now, let's rewind a bit. This wasn't just any friendly, it was in Portugal where Ruben Dias began his career and has roots! So, there was a lot of extra spice in this matchup.
It felt like the entire Sporting side was out for blood against Dias. He looked uncomfortable, like he was trying to dodge his past! The Sporting fans were loud, chanting his name, and it seemed like every time he touched the ball, there was a whirlwind of tackles and shouts!
But here's the thing: Was it really Ruben's debut? Well, he played for City, didn't he? And he didn't score for Sporting... so, maybe not. But the atmosphere was charged, and the performance was eye-catching!
It's crazy to think that a pre-season friendly could have felt this intense! Maybe Ruben's return to Portugal was a nightmare or maybe just a rough day at the office.
Regardless, it was a spectacle we won't forget anytime soon. And who knows, maybe one day, we will see Ruben Dias in a Man Utd jersey!
