FC Porto has shown less offensive effectiveness: “It’s true that we’ve only scored one goal in recent games, but if we look back at the Europa League… We missed a penalty, were three times in front of the goalkeeper, several shots were saved on the line. I think we had 2.6 expected goals. Against Vitória, there was a missed penalty, a ball hit the post, some very good moments. I think we are creating a decent amount of opportunities. If we talk about effectiveness, yes, it makes more sense. It’s something that is also related to the team’s moment and is a matter of a few centimeters. We need to stay calm. Today we will try to improve what is lacking to be better in this part. But if we evaluate the performances in a more rational way, I think we are quite well. It’s important to maintain the rhythm, improve on the things that need to be improved, and at the same time, not lose focus.”
After a turbulent period, Vasco Sousa returned to FC Porto to begin his recovery: “We are very happy to have him with us again, even though it’s difficult for him to recover before the end of the year. But the fact that we have him here with us is very good. Since I met him, I’ve always had a very good relationship with him. He has a lot of energy, always with a big smile. And despite having gone through a difficult period, not only in football but in life, he never lost that smile. We are very happy to have him here again to support us and so we can give him the right vibes to help him recover as well.”
