The outing adds to Sweeney’s growing connection to the football world. In the past, she revealed that several Premier League players messaged her following her broken engagement. She was also linked in rumors to Christian Pulisic, though the AC Milan forward later shut down the speculation.

While the actress has not publicly declared her favorite club or player, her Portugal appearance has fueled excitement among football supporters eager to see her attend more matches in the future.

For now, Sweeney’s Sporting CP cameo has shown that her talents may extend well beyond the big screen, and straight onto the football pitch.
