Paulo Freitas: “It’s a fair and clear win” | OneFootball

FC Porto maintained a flawless record in the Champions League by defeating SCRA Saint Omer (6-3) this Tuesday at the Dragão Arena, in a match for the 3rd round of Group A. After the game, Paulo Freitas lamented the opportunities given to the French team in the first half, but the second half “was completely different” and allowed the National Champions to achieve “three wins in three games.” Now, “we’re going to Valongo to bring back the three points,” concluded the coach.

A victory that falls short“It’s a fair and clear win, but with two very different halves. In the first, we created a lot and scored four goals, but we also gave away a lot. That made me really upset with the team, because we couldn’t afford to play like that. The second half was completely different, we gave away absolutely nothing. We kept creating many chances, but gave nothing to SCRA Saint Omer. It’s a fair and clear victory, with a second half better than the first.”

An away match in Valongo is coming up“We have to look at our journey so far. We’ve already beaten two good Spanish teams, we have three wins in three games, and we have to maintain this momentum. Working after wins is always different. Now it’s about recovering the players and making them understand that we did many things well, but there are others we need to improve and correct. We’re going to Valongo to bring back the three points.”
