Clear victory after an even half hour: “The initial phase was very intense and we had some difficulties finding ways to break through the Boavista defense, but from the moment we scored the first goal everything became easier. Very satisfied with the performance and commitment of the players.
Absence by Fábio Vieira: “I have to make decisions, look closely at the players’ performances, the way they also see their daily lives. Fábio has a lot of talent, but talent must be based on a series of assumptions. And when one or the other ends up falling apart, it makes everything more difficult. He has immense potential, which offers me guarantees, but I cannot renounce the principles of men.

Clear victory in a classic: “Yes, I think that in Dragão it is always more special, with our fans and it was a very happy moment for me and my family. We are counting on your support, there is still a long way to go before the end of the championship and tomorrow at 11 a.m., everyone is there.
