Luis Suárez netted Sporting's lone goal at the Jamor, a strike that ultimately couldn't prevent the Lions' 2-1 extra-time defeat to Torrense. Despite the loss, the prolific striker concluded the season by matching his best scoring streak of the campaign, finding the net in five consecutive matches.
Interestingly, the Lions' number 97 became the fifth Colombian player to score in a Jamor final.
Prior to Suárez, Fredy Guarín and Falcao, both playing for FC Porto, scored in the 2009/2010 2-1 victory over Desp. Chaves. James Rodríguez, also with the Dragons, then bagged a hat-trick in their dominant 6-2 win against V. Guimarães. The most recent before Suárez was Fredy Montero, who scored in the 2018/2018 final, which Sporting lost 2-1 to Desp. Aves.
