This might be the least important trophy, but that's a least one Porto won't get to put their paws on!
Yeah didnt know what happened there. Happy for our boys, hopefully they can kick on, we got a league game and semi final vs. Benfica coming up.
Of course Conceicao and the media will say it was a poor game, we played like a small team in both games vs. Porto, etc... truth is Keizer has managed in two games to counter Porto's pressing style, yes that first game in the league was dull and we should've tried to go more for the victory, but in this game, in the first half, I think we surprised them by pressing higher and baffled their midfield and defense - we just lacked any sort of final ball or finishing ability. 2nd half we had injuries and our fatigue started to show, so naturally Porto controlled the half. - Wendel was really good in my opinion, how this guy didn't have any chance with JJ or Peseiro is beyond me. Keep giving him chances and he could be one of those players that gives us a big profit in the future. - Coates with a really good game at the back - Ristovski has definitely benched Gaspar for good, he might not be the best RB in the world but he has a lot of 'garra' - Acuna subbed off at half time and I could understand why, in these kinds of games his defensive weaknesses show more - Nani irritates me sometimes but after the goal conceded late in the 2nd half his class appeared for us - Bas Dost finally scored against one of our rivals, but continues to be anonymous in these matches
Same here. Get these players used to winning and then hope for the next step. That move by Nani was nasty
Varandas helped a fan with cardiac problems during the festivities on Saturday. Won't be surprised if he wins a few points with this one.
