Diego Moreira, the young Portuguese winger who was promoted by Rúben Amorim at Sporting, scored a brace for AC Milan by finding the net at the 65th and 67th minutes, rescuing the 2-2 draw for the Milanese side on their visit to Lazio, in match of the 4th round of Serie A. The Portuguese player managed two goals in just two minutes apart, demonstrating a remarkable run of form.
