Rodrigo Zalazar, the Uruguayan player from Sporting, scored a direct free kick goal in the Champions League against Galatasaray. The play happened at Alvalade, Sporting's stadium.

The Uruguayan player's goal was the third goal for the Lions in the match, contributing to the Portuguese team's victory or performance in the European competition.

With this goal, Zalazar entered an exclusive group of Sporting players who have scored direct free kicks in the Champions League. He thus joined Miguel Veloso and André Cruz as the only players to achieve this feat for the club.

The article also mentions that the player "killed a lamb at almost 18 years old," an expression in Portuguese sports slang that means he scored a goal of great quality or in a decisive manner.
