See all of Ruben Amorim’s statements:
Amazing Game: “I would have preferred not to suffer in this game, but the way it ended was much more than I could have expected, in such a difficult week but it ended this way. These players are unbelievable.”
Analysis: “We started slowly and conceded two goals in two transitions that we could have avoided, but the second half was unbelievable. The end of this adventure comes today, but it was special and I couldn't have asked for better.”
Game is a metaphor for Sporting’s trajectory: “This game told a story that we all lived in 90 minutes. A lot of suffering, fighting until the end, with goals from Coates, although today it was Harder. In the final 20 minutes we could see the freshness of our team and that's what We said at the press conference: there was going to be a moment to take advantage of the fatigue and that's exactly what we did”.
What's coming: “The next game is the final challenge, because in football we always go from challenge to challenge. I even say that Champions week only ends at the weekend and today ended well. I feel so happy and I need to calm down That's why I give space to the players because I've been through it.”
Pote played hurt: “It hurt me more to see Pote leaving crying. I know he's a little angry with me and that's what it takes. I know he played because it was my last game and left injured.”
Sporting is special: “The results weren't perfect, because we should have won more. I know it seems counterintuitive but we ended up winning more than we expected and I've always been very happy here. A coach stays at a club for 5 years, comes fourth and doesn't feel alone it's special.
