EmailPrintOpen Extended ReactionsHollywood star Sydney Sweeney paid a visit to Portuguese club Sporting CP, and appeared to imitate the trademark celebration of one of the club's former players, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes.Sweeney was in the capital city of Lisbon on Friday to see hosts Sporting beat Estoril 3-0, a win that keeps them in touch with Portuguese Primeira Liga leaders FC Porto.The star of "The White Lotus" and "Euphoria" got a memento from her visit to the Estadio Jos Alvalade in the form of a jersey with "Sydney" on the back, and on the pitch after the match she also got to meet Jubas, the club's giant lion mascot.Sweeney tried her luck with a shot at goal. Judging by her reaction, she wasn't able to beat the goalkeeper, but that didn't stop her appearing to celebrate in familiar fashion by putting her hands up to cover her ears.Fernandes, who spent three seasons at Sporting before joining Manchester United in January 2020, is known to mark scoring a goal by elaborately making that same gesture in an apparent signal to show how he shuts out the external noise that surrounds him.As one of biggest stars of film and TV today, that's no doubt a sentiment that Sweeney can relate to.Sporting's win puts them four points behind Porto, and they will host the league leaders on Tuesday in a huge top-of-the-table clash, before meeting Bodo/Glimt the following week in the round-of-16 of the Champions League.
