Diogo Costa has returned to Olival to resume FC Porto’s preparations, after having contributed to the National Team’s qualification for next year’s World Cup. The captain is naturally pleased, but emphasizes the need to refocus.

Regarding Portugal’s qualification for the World Cup, the starting goalkeeper admitted that it was special to achieve that goal at Estádio do Dragão.

“We secured qualification for our country and obviously I’m very happy, especially because that game was at the Dragão, in our home, on the stadium’s anniversary. Now, I want to bring the good energy from the National Team to FC Porto and share my energy with all my teammates here at the club,” he emphasized, adding: “As a Porto fan since I was born, it’s always a huge joy to be able to celebrate so much in one day, especially at the Dragão, our home. It was a special day.”
