Pedro Lima on William Gomes: “Rivals since we were 11” | OneFootball

Pedro Lima joined FC Porto on the last day of the transfer market, on loan from Wolverhampton, and at Dragão he will reunite with William Gomes, a main team winger with whom he has shared a friendship since they were eleven years old.

«We were rivals in futsal, since we were eleven or twelve years old, and when he went to São Paulo, I went with him. We met as rivals in futsal, but then we became friends on the field. We kept in touch because we also met in the under-17 national team,» he begins to explain.

Regarding William's personality, Pedro Lima doesn't hesitate: «He is a guy who gives his all on the field, he's a good person, responsible, likes to work, and knows what he wants from life,» he highlighted.

The two Brazilians have had few opportunities to play together, but before the classic at Alvalade, Pedro Lima called William – who would go on to be decisive by scoring FC Porto's second goal with a spectacular shot from outside the area.

«I called before the game to wish him good luck and it brought luck,» Pedro Lima highlights with many smiles.
