“We’ll fight until the end” | OneFootball

The roller hockey team hosts Sporting in the third game of the championship play-off semi-finals, and Xavi Malián guarantees that the European Champions will “do everything to win and earn an extra life in the tie” (Wednesday, 9pm, Porto Canal).

Trailing in the series (2-0), the Porto side acknowledge that “an extremely difficult game is coming, one that will be decided by the details,” but the goalkeeper has a message for the fans so that, in sync with the players, they can “all row together in the same direction”: “We are much stronger when we are all together, we have already shown that many times.”

The tickets put on sale by FC Porto have sold out, so another full house is expected at Dragão Arena.

All or nothing“We know that if we lose, we are out, it’s a final, but we are going to approach it the way we approached the last two. We know that here at FC Porto only victory matters in every game, we always play to win, we couldn’t do it in the previous two games, but tomorrow we will do everything to win and to earn an extra life in the tie.”

Total focus“The first game was strange. We conceded three goals while shorthanded; this year we had been doing very well in that phase of the game, but these things happen. We felt very sorry for the fans who came to watch us, but that is behind us now. We are only looking at tomorrow’s game, which will be extremely difficult and decided by the details, but all together we will fight to get the win.”

Together for the same goal“We are very confident and we want to win tomorrow’s game. We know that if we don’t win tomorrow’s game, there won’t be another one, but we have a lot of confidence because we are working well, even if sometimes things don’t come off. We will fight until the end and tomorrow we want everyone together – players, coaching staff and fans – rowing in the same direction.”

The Porto family“It had been a long time since I had seen the arena so full, it was very good, I want to thank them for their trust and tell them that tomorrow we will leave everything out on the rink to give them the win. We are much stronger when we are all together, we have already shown that many times, and that will be the case again.”
