Benfica star under Schmidt on PSG-Nice goal: I don’t expect… | OneFootball

Last night, Gonçalo Ramos once again stood out as the star of the evening by securing victory for PSG. The former Benfica striker, who 'exploded' under Roger Schmidt's management, responded to the fact that he scores more goals coming off the bench than as a starter, stating that it is a matter of confidence.

Once again overlooked by Luis Enrique, the former number 88 of the Eagles proved once more that he is a luxury substitute, guaranteeing the Parisian victory against Nice by scoring in the 90+4th minute. At the end of the match, the Portuguese forward emphasized that he doesn't need goals to know his own quality: "I don't wait for goals to have confidence."

After stating that it is not a matter of lacking confidence, PSG's number 9 said it is merely a coincidence that he is more prolific as a substitute: "I score more often when I come off the bench, perhaps because I am usually a substitute."

It should be noted that the Portuguese international saved the French champions from slipping up in the league against Nice, managed by Tiago Gouveia. While Gonçalo Ramos started on the bench, João Neves, another former Benfica player, was in the starting eleven for the Parisians, after recovering from an injury.
