Paulo Freitas: “It’s a well-deserved, clear win” | OneFootball

FC Porto maintained an immaculate record in the Champions League by defeating SCRA Saint Omer (6-3) this Tuesday at the Dragão Arena, in a match of the 3rd round of Group A. After the match, Paulo Freitas lamented the opportunities given to the French team in the first half, but the second half “was completely different” and allowed the National Champions to achieve “three wins in three games.” Now, “we're going to Valongo to bring back the three points,” concluded the coach.

A victory that falls short “It's a fair and clear victory, but with two distinct halves. In the first, we created a lot and scored four goals, but we also gave away a lot. That left me very upset with the team, as we couldn't enter that pattern. The second half was completely different, we offered absolutely nothing. We continued to create many opportunities, but we gave nothing to SCRA Saint Omer. It's a fair and clear victory, with a second half better than the first.”

A trip to Valongo is coming “We have to look at our journey so far. We've already beaten two good Spanish teams, we have three wins in three games, and we have to maintain this dynamic. Working on victories is always different. Now it's about recovering the athletes and making them realize that we did many things well, but there are others we need to improve and correct. We're going to Valongo to bring back the three points.”
