The 2021-22 campaign delivered vital silverware for Sporting CP as the Leões secured a crucial second-place finish in the Primeira Liga and lifted both the Taça da Liga and Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira trophies. Leading the charge was the sensational loanee Pablo Sarabia, whose 15 league goals powered the attack, earning him the team's top scorer title. It was a standout year defined by Sarabia’s vital goal in the 2-1 comeback victory against rivals Benfica in the Taça da Liga final, and a memorable run to the Champions League Round of 16, cementing the club's European presence under manager Rúben Amorim.
