Mora on his headed goal: “It’s not something I do very often…” | OneFootball

Rodrigo Mora gave a quick interview to Canal 11 after Portugal’s 1-0 victory over Scotland in the second round of qualifying for the Under-21 European Championship:

Decisive header and performance against Scotland

“It’s not very common for me to score goals with my head, but I showed up at the right moment. It was a great ball from Quenda and I just had to put my head to it. It was a good team effort. I contribute more to the team if I play closer to the opponent’s goal. That’s where I play best and I managed to provide an assist. Roger Fernandes needed to score this goal.”

Goals for the rest of the qualifiers?

“We are all leaders in the national team. There was a moment when Scotland was on top, at the end of the first half, and we had to catch our breath with the ball. That’s what happened. In the second half, we came back strong and managed to make it 2-0. The goal was to win both games. We’ll have more and we have to keep winning them.”
