After the victory over Boavista (1-0), Fábio Vieira, who scored the goal that secured the three points to FC Porto, and named man of the match by the League, explained that the blue and whites knew “it was going to be a difficult match against Boavista, a very strong, consistent team at home”, adding: “We were stronger and deserved the victory”. On the near future, the number 50 reminded that there are “seven very important matches left to win, seven finals, because we want to be national champions”.

The analysis of the always difficult derby at Porto
“We knew it was going to be a difficult match against Boavista, a very strong, consistent team at home. We had to remain true to ourselves, focus on the coach’s idea, on what we prepared for the match. We scored, we won and now we move on to what’s left.”

The importance of scoring first and the overall superiority in the match
“We knew it was very important to score first, we managed to do it, and then we wanted to score the second and the third. We didn’t score those, they have good players, they are strong at home, but we were stronger and deserved the victory.”

The seven finals left to win
“It was a derby, a big match against a rival from the same city, with great fans on both sides. It’s beautiful to see that in the stadium, but we have to focus on our work. We got the victory, but we have seven very important matches left to win, seven finals because we want to be national champions.”

Full commitment from the team
“I’m just another one to help, it could have been Taremi or anyone else, I was the chosen one and I had to give everything for the team, everything for the group and never for the individual. Now we have to stay together because we’re going to face very important matches.”
