The U17 team set itself the goal of “creating a story within the Club, a story with a very great and intense passion, a long story whose final chapter would be the presentation of the trophy in the Museum” and completed that journey this Tuesday by being crowned National Champions of the age group. “Very happy”, with “immense pride” and a “very rewarding feeling” for “adding another title to the Museum of the most decorated club in Portugal”, coach José João said he had “no words for what the group has written up to today”, but reminded that, while “the Museum lives on titles, the team lives on work”: “We want to work even more so we can fill this Museum with more titles.”
The desired ending to the story“We are very happy. We set out to create a story within the Club, a story with a very great and intense passion, a long story in which our final chapter would be this presentation of the trophy in the Museum. We fulfilled that purpose, that story, and we are very happy to be able to enter this enormous Museum, filled with titles. We are the club in Portugal with the most titles, and being able to add one more title has a very rewarding feeling for us. We are happy; the Museum lives on titles, but we live on work, and we want to work more so we can fill this Museum with more titles.”
The feeling of mission accomplished“It means a lot. When I arrived at the Club, I always believed we could win a title by the end of the year, but given the difficulty that being here entails, it is an immense source of pride. To be here with my players, with the Board, and to feel that my family is also very happy… I have no words for what we are writing today.”
