The curtain fell on another edition of the championship and FC Porto closed it on the podium, after beating Braga, 1-0, in matchday 34. In the analysis of the result that guaranteed direct qualification to the Europa League, Galeno recalled "the difficulty of playing in Braga", admitting that the goal he scored "helped getting the victory" at the end of a season marked by numerous "difficulties" in which the team played many "games with many opportunities to score goals". "Now we have a great final to play and we will rest", the Liga Portugal MVP concluded.

Patience is a virtue
“We knew it wasn't going to be an easy game, everyone knows how difficult it is to play in Braga. They are a great team, but we worked well, we were patient with the ball, in the first half we were not the same as in the second and eventually a goal came that helped getting the victory."

Those who don’t score...
“We knew they would be coming for us, because they needed the result, and we were waiting for it. If it was the other way around, we would have done the same, we would also be going for them. It ended up leaving room for us to take advantage of, which is what we do, these one-on-one duels on the wings in which we often come out on top and end up deciding games.”

16th goal of the season
“We are aware that it wasn’t a great season, we faced many difficulties from the start until now. We missed many goals, we had games with many opportunities to score goals and today we could also have scored more. Now we need to rest because we have a big final to play.”

Sporting at Jamor
“A final is a final and it will be a great game against a great team that became champion. We will work during the week, study their team well, we know that we can fight for titles and now we will rest because that is also important.”

André Villas-Boas
“We don't usually talk about the president inside the locker room. We have to focus on ourselves, unite inside the locker room and let things work out outside. The president was there with us, talked to us and gave us several details that I will not address here. Now we have a big final to play and we're going to rest.”
