We really wanted to resume here at home with a victory after this series of defeats. Even if our losses were against big teams, it’s never good for confidence. But in the group, we never doubted. We continued to believe in ourselves. Let’s keep the style of play and the state of mind of today; we will get the same results.

I did not touch too many balls in the first period, we had chosen to favor attacks on the sides. And, in the end, I found myself a little lonely in the middle of the field. at half time we explained in order to put more variety in our football. The result is the first goal as soon as the resumption: Branco opens the way for me, in the axis, in one touch.
