"There are always issues to improve, mainly in the set pieces, in the decision-making and timing. Offensively, we can be much more assertive, more intentional and aggressive up front. We can be more threatening. Essentially, the goal is to consolidate the processes", stated Jorge Braz.

In statements released by the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF), Braz said he was convinced that Slovenia will also improve in the second match, scheduled for Saturday, at 7:30 pm, at the Pavilhão Multiusos de Odivelas.

"I have no doubt that Slovenia will also improve for the second match. They will readjust and increase their aggression levels. The rematch is always more complicated. Each moment is an opportunity to improve and fine-tune what was not so good", he stated.

Tiago Brito, the captain of the Portuguese national team, world champion and two-time European champion, considered that in Thursday's match the most important thing "was to win without conceding".

"We can improve, we had some moments of hesitation and difficulties in the pressure. We still want to work on the set pieces. Basically, we always want to improve our process", he stated.

The Sporting de Braga winger also mentioned that Slovenia is a good opponent for Portugal to prepare for the World Cup, which will take place in Uzbekistan, between September 14 and October 06.

"Slovenia is an opponent that will help us in our preparation for the World Cup. They are an extremely physical team, which forces us to have great collective dynamics. We will certainly find teams with this style and, in that sense, it is essential to prepare ourselves for this level of difficulty", he mentioned.

Tiago Brito was proud to be the captain of the national team and highlighted the importance of calling up young players for the training sessions: "The young players get here due to their evolutionary process. Their presence in the youth national teams helps them reach this level with a lot of experience. The integration is normal and they are perfectly identified with this space".
