Estádio do Dragão will host women’s football once again for the match between FC Porto and Clube de Albergaria, in the 14th and final round of the National Second Division Championship final stage, scheduled for 11:00 this Sunday (Porto Canal). Previewing “a difficult game against a difficult opponent” and “regardless of the fact that everything has already been settled,” Daniel Chaves stressed that “it is always important to maintain a competitive edge, because there are still two finals to play,” and said that it is “always a privilege” to play in “a magical stadium” like the Dragão.
Mariana Azevedo echoed the coach’s words: “We feel the responsibility of wearing this shirt and, being at the Dragão, it is even more special.” Because “the fans deserve a good performance,” the Portuguese international defender guarantees that she will “give everything” to produce “a good game” against “a team that really wants to win, because they also want promotion.”
Third place team“It will be a difficult game against a difficult opponent, who caused us a lot of problems in the first half of the season. We know they are a strong team in transition, with very fast players, and they will certainly compete to win.”
Title secured“Above all, just as against Ouriense, we have to be serious, competitive, work for ourselves and uphold the competition and the game, because regardless of the fact that everything has already been settled, it is always important to maintain a competitive edge, because there are still two finals to play.”
Theater of dreams“Above all, it is symbolic to play at the Dragão, a magical stadium, and it is always a privilege to play there, especially when we receive the champions’ trophy.”
To the Porto family“I want to invite all the fans to be there, because this will be an important moment for everyone. This victory and this title were achieved together, so we want to invite them to come and bring as many people as they can so that we can all lift the trophy together at the end of the match.”
A great spectacle“We hope to show our football once again against a team that really wants to win, because they also want promotion. It will be a good game and I hope our fans will be there helping us.”
Honoring the badge“We feel the responsibility of wearing this shirt and, being at the Dragão, it is even more special. Our fans really deserve for us to put in a good performance, and we are going to give everything.”
Celebratory mood“The atmosphere in the dressing room is incredible, after so many victories and after winning the championship. This is a group that has stood out for its friendship from the start, and now even more so.”
The strength from the stands“I ask the fans to come and support us once again, because they were very important and this title is theirs too, for the strength they gave us in every game. They also deserve to be there in the good moments celebrating with us.”
