However, I think we have shown that if we play at our best level, we can beat them. We are looking forward to the game and will give 100% to win against Benfica and offer that to the club and the fans», began Victor Froholdt, who also confessed he hasn't seen any past Classics and compared the game to Copenhagen x Brondby.

«I haven't seen many games yet, but I know they were great classics, and I hope the challenge we are going to play will be one to remember. In Denmark, we also have some great rivalries and great fans, and I enjoyed that, but here there are many more people who go to football, the country is bigger. The atmosphere is more or less the same, but here we have a lot more people who love football. And we have great fans here at FC Porto. Copenhagen x Brondby? I think it's more or less the same, there is also a great rivalry in Denmark, but this rivalry we have at FC Porto is very big. I know what it means to the fans and if we win, the whole city will celebrate. If we lose, the city will go to work the next day a little sad. We have to do our job», emphasized the midfielder.

The midfielder also explained aspects of the preparation and highlighted that the priority is always the team itself.

«The team has to approach every game as if it were the last and most important because we have to win every match if we want to get the trophy at the end. So, I don't think we have to do anything special. We also know that Benfica is a very good team, and we will have to be prepared for that. During the game, we will have to do some things differently, however, the mentality is the same for all matches», highlighted Victor Froholdt.
