In reaction to the performance in the match, João Pereira confessed in his post-game statements that “unlike in past games, we didn't have a very strong start. It was difficult for us to create opportunities in the first half, we had two, Viktor's were clearer. We had a lot of ball, lots of passing, absolute control again, but we didn't create. In the second half we adjusted the pressure because we were running a lot without winning the ball, and from then on. Gil couldn't play“.
Remembering that, at this moment, those led by João Pereira are in leadership of Liga Portugal Betclic, with 37 points, equal on points with Porto, but they can be surpassed by rival Benfica, who are in third with 35 points, but have a game in hand.
