Frederico Varandas, at the ‘Roars of Leão’ Gala, despite the most recent defeat, praised his team’s performance in the derby, against Benfica (2-1)stating that the result does not match the events of the respective duel.
«It is normal for fans and members to experience the club in an emotional way. Even though we lost, Sporting were the best team on the field. We were unequivocally the best team while playing 11 against 11 and even in the 48 minutes we played with just 10 players we always controlled the game. We lost in a hard and unfair way but it’s part of the game. It’s football”, guaranteed the club’s top manager.
«No matter how much football scientists are now saying that this and that happened because of such an attitude/decision, the truth is that in the 93rd minute, very few fans who were in that stadium believed that it was possible for Sporting to tie the game and none of them believed that they would lose. the game”, he added.
The president of Sporting also left a jab at Roger Schmidt, coach of the eagles: «Don’t be bothered by some gentleman saying that they were better, that they deserved to win and that there is no more beautiful way to win. I hear that with pleasure and I would be even more pleased if they really believed what they said.”
“I am very proud of the performance of our coach and our players. 1/3 of the championship has already been played, we have already been to Braga and Luz, we are at the top of the table and to date we have been the strongest and most consistent team. We are as we set out to be: competing for all the national titles and having another good European season”, he concluded.
