Alberto Costa on rivalry with Martim Fernandes: “We spur each other on”

In an interview with the newspaper O Jogo, Alberto Costa commented on various aspects of his reality. The Portuguese right-back spoke about the relationship and competition with Martim Fernandes, another member of the FC Porto squad:

«I have a great relationship with him, we're always joking around. Even with Francisco [Moura], we're also closer. But, in terms of competition, it's good that we are two great players, it only benefits us. The season is very long, there are many games and, of course, unconsciously, we will always push each other, that's how each one becomes a better player».
