Gabri Veiga scored twice in FC Porto 3-0 OGC Nice
FC Porto beat OGC Nice at home in the fifth matchday of the Europa League (3-0) and Gabri Veiga said he was “very happy with the team’s performance and his individual performance”. Aware of the importance of “winning and being great at home”, the scorer of the first two goals praised the attitude of a group of players who “worked as a team and fought for each other” to “lead FC Porto to victory”.
On the right track
“I am very happy with the team's performance. It was very important to win today in the Europa League and be great at home. Two home games, two wins. I am happy with my individual performance, but it was the result of the team's work, especially that goal in the early minutes, which is something we attach great importance to. Everything went well today. On Sunday we have a new battle.”
Happy night
“Sometimes I get to the ball, sometimes I don't, but the job requires me to get into those areas and that's one of my qualities. Sometimes I'm luckier, today everything went well for me, let's hope it happens more often.”
The opponent's form
“We knew Nice weren't at their best, but they have a lot of talent and very good players. We had to work as a team and we did very well in that regard. We all fought for each other and that's what led us to victory. It's a good test to continue growing.”
Advancing to the Round of 16
“It’s one of our objectives, but we have to take it one game at a time. Today we achieved our goal, now we have to focus on the league, the League Cup, and then we’ll play Malmö here again and we want to keep earning points. FC Porto’s goal is always to win.”
