Alice Reto on JuveForce clash: "We must play with confidence" | OneFootball

In their debut as visitors in the Championship Qualification phase of the Women's Second Division, FC Porto travels to JuveForce's ground (Saturday, 3:00 PM) and, according to Daniel Chaves, the team is ready to play “on a smaller, synthetic field, where it's very difficult for the ball to roll in the best conditions.”

Focused on securing “three more points,” the coach warned the players about the risks of facing “a team that takes advantage of quick breaks and has very fast and technically strong players up front,” and full-back Alice Reto admits that this “will be a different game” from the Portuguese Cup match, emphasizing that the Porto players will “enter the field with confidence” and determined to “fight for victory.”

Tickets for the José Maria Neto Field in Vagos are priced at 3 euros and will be available at the stadium's ticket office on the day of the match.

Daniel ChavesA reunion with distinct contours“The preparation has been similar to previous games, knowing that the last game was different as it was at our home, on grass, and on a large field. JuveForce's ground is completely different. They have a smaller, synthetic field, and it's very difficult for the ball to really roll in the best conditions there, and we are preparing for that.”

JuveForce“We expect an opponent with a similar performance to what they've had so far, a team that takes advantage of quick breaks, has very fast and technically strong players up front. I think they will wait for our mistake to seize that moment. We know we have to be cautious and pay attention and maintain balance.”

The desired start in the final phase“The victory was important to start the final phase well and to give us some morale for what's to come, knowing that this victory does not guarantee wins in the following games. We have to continue working daily to keep progressing on the path we have been following. It's three more points each week, that's the mindset we take into the game.”

Alice RetoAn old acquaintance“Regardless of having played against them before, this is a different game and we have to approach it that way, first because it's away, but also because, regardless of the victory, every game is different and we have to be prepared for the field we will play on and for the opponents' response, who will surely give everything to get the three points.”

The opponent“They are a very strong team, it's going to be difficult, but we're going all out and we want three more points.”
