Rui Borges, Sporting's coach, publicly praised the young player Flavio Gonçalves, describing him as a destined kid with above-average quality. The coach expressed great confidence in the athlete's abilities.

As a method of motivation and discipline, Rui Borges adopted a peculiar approach with his player. The coach charges a fine of €100 to Flavio Gonçalves for each poorly executed pass during training or matches.

This fine system for missed passes aims to encourage the young player to reach higher levels of technical demandingness. Rui Borges believes that this fine system can help Flavio develop as a footballer.
