FC Porto won in Estádio do Bessa 1-0, for matchday 11 of Liga NOS
The Porto derby of matchday 11 on Liga NOS, opposing Boavista and FC Porto, at Estádio do Bessa, ended with a blue and white victory (1-0), which Sérgio Conceição believes to be fair. The blue and white coach stated that FC Porto was always in control of the match and talked of the several solutions in the squad, adding that he trusts everyone.
Convincing victory
“The players worked hard. Our goal was to win and we did it. It’s always difficult to play here, and we knew Boavista is a highly competitive team, aggressive. We were always in control of the match and we had several situations to seal the victory. We prevented their creative process and closed the spaces wingers find behind our defensive line. We were mature, and deserved to win.”
Several solutions
“I have a squad that gives me guarantees, and I count on everyone, no matter if they’re 17 or 35 years old. What matters to me is their competence and what they do in training every day. Depending on the match, I will choose the best team.”
Complete confidence in the squad
“We know the group we have, it won’t be a match that will make me change my mind about this or that player. Loum, Fábio Silva and Diogo Costa were up to the challenge, just to mention the ones that played in the starting team for the first time.”
Absences for internal reasons
“I will talk of those who played. Now is not the time to talk of that.”
