Alberto Costa, FC Porto player, spoke to Sport TV’s Flash Interview after the 3-0 victory against Nice.

Match assessment and praise for the under-17s

“First of all, I want to congratulate our five teammates who became world champions and who, in the future, will be a great help to the main team. Congratulations to them for their achievement. We already knew it was a strong team, strong in transitions, and that above all we would have to be very attentive to maintaining balance. And I think maybe in one or two plays we could have done better, but overall, we did well.”

Farioli’s communication

“Of course, of course. The coach’s message was well received. From the coach and from Pablo [Rosario], who also knew this team well, and warned us, and we were already very alert, and we managed to neutralize Nice.”

Pablo Rosario’s contribution

“Yes, and once again Pablo was impeccable on the field. Even talking to the team, incredible. Yes, and I think today, from what I saw, it was very clear. He has leadership qualities.”

Alternative between Pablo and Bednarek

“I think we are all prepared to play with each other. In training we play with everyone, we’re ready, whoever it is.”

Goal: to enter the top 8

“It means that today we took a big step towards that goal. Now there are three games left, we need to keep the same attitude and win the remaining nine points.”

Aiming for the National Team and the 2026 World Cup

“It’s not a matter of thinking about it; I’ll do everything I can to be among those chosen, but the most important thing for me is to do things well here, win every game here, and that’s it: I want to do well here and then anything else will be a bonus.”
