Farioli: The biggest disappointment is the game at the Dragao sta…

Analysis of the game and the tie.

After a performance of this level, this is what we need to talk about. In both games, last week’s and tonight’s, I think the biggest disappointment is the game at the Dragão stadium, where we could potentially have scored two or three goals without any problem.

Regarding tonight, we again had the two best opportunities. Jan [Bednarek]’s red card changed the situation significantly. It wasn’t easy to readjust the team in the first half. At halftime, as you saw, we made four substitutions, changed some things tactically, and prepared a new game in three minutes.”

Team performance

And honestly, what can I say about these players? I’m simply very proud of them for their spirit, for the intelligence they demonstrate in understanding the game, for the effort they put into the game. Therefore, we probably deserved to be in the semi-final, but we have to accept the result on the field and that’s all. Turn the page and now prepare well for Sunday’s game against Tondela.

Still the first leg match, which featured the own goal.

What happened last week was quite a unique episode, but what can you do? It’s something that can happen in football. Today, a goal with a rebound. We missed a great opportunity early in the game when the score was 0-0: two shots that hit the crossbar… So, I think we did everything we could.
