Analysis: There would be a day when we would only score one, and this was it. We suffered zero, and that gave us the victory. We knew that, as the championship progressed, these types of games would become very difficult. It was a team that was coming from a good moment, without much responsibility, and we with the pressure of wanting to win to reach our goals, but we were always closer to the goal, mainly in the first half, with a lot of control. We were the only ones who complicated the game, with some passes to the middle that gave rebounds and transitions. We controlled the game well until the last ten minutes. Then, it was about holding on to each other to take the advantage. We had opportunities to kill the game, we couldn't. It's a victory that tastes good.

Suffering at the end: It is always unnecessary, but it is part of it. Maybe we suffer today so we don't suffer more later, we don't know. We know that the games are becoming complicated, and we, by not being able to score the second goal, lost the ability to have the ball, and Famalicão pressured us more. But we controlled it well, without great opportunities for Famalicão, and we won.

Fair victory: We won well, because we were always closer to the goal. We controlled clearly, in the first half. Only with some fouls and corners did Famalicão reach our goal. We, without great opportunities, but controlling the game with the ball. We were the best team on the field, in a game with several phases, but we were more competent.

Bet on Daniel Bragança: Dani had made two recoveries where he came after the player to put pressure, and he already had a yellow card. The yellow cards are very conditioning, because we cannot be left with one less player. He proved, once again, that he played an excellent game. He only left because of the yellow card. He is fighting for a place. According to the characteristics and the moment of the players, we will present the team that we think is best.

Daniel Bragança almost scored: Yes, at the beginning of the game, in a great opportunity, with a great shot. But, more than that, it's the way he plays, how he defends, how he connects the game. He is a very good player.

Viktor Gyokeres did not score: He always does his job. He gets very stressed if he doesn't score, but he helps the team. Today, he did what he has been doing. He stretched the team, held the ball, tired the defenders... He didn't score, but he will, later on.

The title is no longer escaping: It's as if we had zero points of advantage. We cannot relax and we have to take this as far forward as possible without losing points, without giving hope to anyone, very competently. We will need our audience to help us against Vitória SC.

Important step: Without a doubt, there is no way to hide it.
