“We have to match FC Porto” | OneFootball

FC Porto’s futsal team held their first training session at Dragão Arena, a particularly special moment for Cardinal, now integrated with his new teammates. The captain admits that “expectations are high,” since “a club like FC Porto demands that,” and acknowledges the “great responsibility” of wearing the armband. In the dressing room, he wants to help “build a true family.”

The debut in the Third Division is getting closer and closer. Cardinal, number 7 in an “ambitious” squad with “a lot of fighting spirit,” assures that the team will “always fight to win”: “Our objective is clear. FC Porto enters every competition to win, we want to be champions and earn promotion, and we will go into every match to win, as is only natural.”

Finally at home “It’s a very special moment, not only for me but also for my teammates and for the Club. Yesterday we did the fitness tests, today is the first training session in our arena, and we are very happy and eager to get started.”

High standards “Expectations are high, a club like FC Porto demands that, and we are prepared for it. We know the quality we have in the squad, we know what our objectives are, and we will work to achieve them.”

Being captain “It’s a very big responsibility, but I’m ready for it. It’s a good responsibility, but the most important thing is always the collective, and I’m just one more. As captain, I’m here to help my teammates, and I also need their help.”

The Porto family “This is a new team. I already knew some of my teammates, others I didn’t, and it’s important to build team spirit in the dressing room. We have to form a true family, as happens within this Club, and the first impressions have been good. I’m enjoying getting to know my teammates, the group is united, and we will continue that work in the dressing room and in the technical and tactical side as well, together with our coach and the rest of the coaching staff. We’re only just starting now, we have time for that, and when the championship begins we will be ready.”

FC Porto DNA “Our identity is to play the Porto way and go into every game to win. We know no team wins all the time, but we will always fight to win. We are ambitious, we have a lot of fighting spirit, our Club is known for that, and we have to live up to FC Porto.”
