“We’re on the right track” | OneFootball

FC Porto got their league campaign off to the best possible start by beating FC Alverca 2-0 in the opening round. Gabri Veiga believes that “it’s always good to start with a win” and “with a goal that gives you confidence,” especially against “an opponent that puts so much into the game.” The Spanish midfielder admits that “We are on the right track, but we have to improve. This is not yet our best version” and stresses that the goal is to “be better every day,” since “FC Porto is FC Porto and has to always be up there.”

On the right track “We started well, but this is not yet our best version. We are on the right track, we have to improve, but it is still only the opening round. It’s always good to start with a win and I think we were deserved winners, even if we are not yet at the level of excellence we would like.”

FC Alverca “It is always difficult to play against opponents who put so much into the game. On top of that, they have a coach we know well and have a lot of affection for, as well as great players. They are a good team.”

A dream debut “It’s good to start with a goal that gives you confidence and that, above all, helped the team win 2-0. I have to step up, because I am capable of more.”

One game at a time “We do not look at others, only at ourselves. We go game by game, week by week, day by day. We want to be better every day. We go for the win in every match, regardless of the opponent, because FC Porto is FC Porto and has to always be up there.”
