Miguel Coelho unfazed by Braga loss: “We’ll fight with fans at Dragão” | OneFootball

In a match in which they “were never able to be better than SC Braga in attacking numbers” and in which “passing or hitting errors in transition” made it “impossible to play,” FC Porto’s volleyball team were beaten 3-0 in Minho, allowing their opponents to level the Liga playoff final (1-1).

At the end of the match, Miguel Coelho thanked the “people who go everywhere with the group and fill the Dragão Arena”: “These fans are a very important part of the team. They know we fought, but we didn’t have such a good game. Now we’re going to fight together at the Dragão Arena.”

The defeat in game 2 of the final“In all three sets, we were never able to be better than SC Braga in attacking numbers, and they were never able to be better than us in reception numbers, which means they received below expectations and rotated all the high balls they had to rotate with block touches or defensive errors. Or else in the next transition there was a passing or attacking error, and that way it’s impossible for us to play. If we put them under pressure on the reception line but can’t produce anything in transition, it’s impossible. SC Braga have attacking weapons; they were comfortable throughout the whole match because they were able to hit off the block and score.”

The tireless support in the stands“It had no impact because that’s how it has been since we’ve been here. People go everywhere with us and fill the Dragão Arena. These fans are a very important part of the team. They know we fought, but we didn’t have such a good game. Now we’re going to fight together at the Dragão Arena.”
