Sporting, the prestigious Portuguese league, is suffering from the aftermath of the departure of Ruben Amorim.
According to Portuguese media such as 'O JOGO' on the 6th (Korea time), complaints from fans are rising as Sporting has fallen into a series of defeats of shock since Amorim's departure.
Amorim was appointed as the new manager of England's prestigious Manchester United last month. Thanks to his rise to the ranks of masters in the Portuguese league, Manchester United ambitiously recruited him to improve his constitution.
Sporting applauded director Amorim, who is leaving for the bigger world, but his vacancy seems to have been inevitable.
Sroarting promoted team B coach Joan Pereira as the successor head coach. But the team's performance crashed. Sporting, who had won the opening 11 consecutive games under Amorim, lost for the first time in a row since Pereira took office.

The fan's dissatisfaction eventually exploded after leading 1-0 in the 13th round of the Portuguese league against Moreyrense on the 6th and losing 2-1 in a 2-1 victory. Fans complained after the game, saying "Return Amorim","Pereira ruined the winning team".
As if conscious of this, Pereira responded with a joke in an interview with the media, recalling his former coach Amorim. "Is director Amorim looking at us as a ghost. "I think he helped our players a lot (against Morelense). But he's not a ghost and I don't believe in the existence of a ghost. We dominated the midfield in this game. He dominated the game except for allowing a goal."
