He jumped off the bench to make it 2-1 for FC Porto, but Anderlecht still reached the tie and matchday 5 of the Europa League ended with one point for each side. After the match, Fábio Vieira highlighted the focus and the “right mindset” with which the Dragons took to the pitch, but the team needs to “have more maturity when we are at an advantage”. “I want to thank our fans as well, who have been fantastic throughout the game,” added number 10.

A resume of the match
“That's what's been happening to us lately, conceding the tie whenever we're ahead or after we score. In this regard, we are in a difficult moment. We came here to win and prepared the game in the best way, focused and with the right mindset, but, unfortunately, we didn't get the victory. We conceded again after we had the upper hand.”

Frustration
“We started the game with the best spirit to do everything to win, which was our main goal. We scored first, conceded the 1-1 and went after them. We pushed forward and ended up conceding again and we tied the match. We have to be more mature when we have the advantage. We're going home frustrated.”

Thank you, dragons
“This moment has been difficult for us and for our fans, but we all have to be united. I want to leave a word to our fans as well, who were fantastic throughout the game.”
