System with three centers: “It’s not a new system for those who have been here for a while. We weren’t surprised. What Mr. Tiago did was to help us. By the way, a word of appreciation for helping us and preparing us for this game. We were very mature and intelligent.”
How were the last 48 hours with the departure of Rui Borges and the news about Paulo Fonseca? “It was difficult. I leave a word of affection for Mr. Rui Borges, for everything he did for Sporting and for me. I really liked him. Then, Mr. Tiago helped us a lot. We don’t have to think about who’s coming or not.”
Opinion about the exit: “It’s not my decision. The president and Bernardo (Palmeiro) decide that. I’m here to do my best in every game, no matter who the coach is.”
Nine points in the Champions League: “We are satisfied. We could have 12 out of 12, but nine is already a lot in this Champions League and we will try to do more.”
