Enzo Fernández also analyzed the match against Porto, considering it a game of great physical demand. The Argentine had a heated night after an argument with Porto officials, namely Henrique Monteiro and Tiago Madureira.

“A very demanding game, very physical. The Champions League is like that, with lots of transitions and lots of pressing, which is characteristic of Porto. I was happy with the result. At half-time we corrected some positioning and the high press to create finishing opportunities for Haaland,” he explained.

The former Eagles midfielder also recalled his experiences at the Estádio do Dragão, where he had already played as a Benfica player. “Playing at the Dragão is difficult. I’ve played here for Benfica and I also really liked this beautiful stadium. The dream is always to be European champions. That’s always what we’re going to fight for,” he concluded to SportTV.
