Fernando Sá: “It remains an extremely tough situation” | OneFootball

About the match: “I think we were quite focused on what we had prepared. Essentially, on the limitations of the individual technical aspects of the Sporting team. We forced the key players on the team to make decisions they are not so accustomed to. I believe that, in some way, this lowered their percentages and gave us possession to make quick transitions. This helped us achieve the victory.”

Sign of recovery? “I can't say it's a recovery. My feelings are good, but I've felt these feelings several times throughout the season. The team has had good performances and situations that we don't like. Therefore, we will continue to work every day, and this is just a victory and nothing more than that.”

Position in the standings: “In terms of ranking, it remains an extremely difficult situation. We are two points behind Sporting, with equal points. We could have won by more than six points, which could eventually be just two defeats. As it stands, it might have to be three defeats for Sporting. It's an extremely complicated situation, but we will do our work and try to reach the end in a position that allows us to compete for the national title.”
