What do you feel didn't go well? A defeat like this seemed almost impossible…
“We knew it was going to be a difficult game, they managed to have a lot of time on the ball. I think the game was a bit like that. We didn't manage to hit the pressure so well and they ended up scoring goals. We started well in the 2nd half, but then the fourth The goal left the team a little down and we couldn't finish our moves.
They looked first at the game that had taken place two seasons ago. What didn't work so well for Sporting to do as well as they did there?
“It was not scoring goals and taking more than we took. I think it was there. It was a little bit that we couldn't press in the best way, we should have lowered the lines a little more and then did everything at the same time. I think we were doing there's a lot of pressure individually. But that's it, nothing to do. We have to make a positive impression from the start of the 2nd half and now we have to think about the next game.”
What did João Pereira ask of you in the locker room at halftime?
“It took a bit to change the pressure and then also to appeal to the team's belief. We weren't satisfied with the 3-0. We want more, we're playing at home in front of our fans and we wanted to get a better result.”
