«Hello! I was there to do some things and couldn’t come, I’m sorry». It was like this, with a smile of slight embarrassment, that Ãlvaro Pacheco entered this Saturday’s press conference, already late.

As thingsThose who prevented greater punctuality are more than forgivable: the Estoril Praia coach took a while because he was talking to Joaquim Ribeiro, president of Vizela, before the visiting delegation headed back north. It was the first meeting in a professional context since surprising termination transacted for a while.

There was no lack of emotion on the field, in a game that ends 2-2It was thanks to a goal at 90+11, but, being a duel between two teams that had not yet particularly impressed in this Liga Portugal Betclic, everything would revolve around this clash between Ãlvaro Pacheco and Vizela, whose story is as long as it is passionate.

This was a theme on our portal, both in the preview and in the match Time.news. At the press conference, finding it strange to hear «Vizela» in the voice of Ãlvaro Pacheco to refer to an opponent, we raised the question: was it strange for the mister too?

“It’s very strange, I’m not going to lie. The city and the people of Vizela tell me a lot, a lot. The bond we created will last a lifetime, no one will erase it, and I will always be grateful. I also helped Vizela reach this stage, which was a dream, it was growth together,” he said, before underlining the need to be successful with the symbol he represents today.

They were, remember, 120 games in three and a half seasons, in a climb that went from the Portuguese Championship to the Primeira Liga. A long relationship, full of achievements and a great connection to the club’s culture, which came to have a symbol recognized by everyone on the coach’s beret.

“The history we made, the friendships and bonds we created, will be eternal. It’s for the rest of your life. I just have to say that it was a pleasure and a great pride to represent Vizela, to be part of this family, but now it’s time to move on».

Novo meeting It is scheduled for the end of February, in the second round of the championship. It will, in principle, be an equally emotional return to the stadium where it all happened.
