Clinton Mata Injury: Option against Lorient

Mata (hamstring) is an option for Sunday's clash against Lorient, coach Paulo Fonseca said in the press conference.

Mata has fully recovered from his hamstring injury and after being called by the Angola national team for the AFCON a few days ago, the defender is an option against to face Lorient on Sunday. This is excellent news for the Gones since Mata is an undisputed starter in central defense and will likely claim back that spot against the Merlus on Sunday.
