Diogo Pina, PLAYERS OF FUTURE forward, returned to the starting line-up in the Serpa team after having a good performance in the challenge against Pêro Pinheiro, which placed the team in the round of 32 of the Portuguese Cup, where they will face Gil Vicente. This Saturday, the Alentejo club's striker was a starter in the draw (1-1, Alentejo goal scored by Gonçalo Batista) started during the visit to Moncarapachense.
- How do you analyze the draw in Moncarapacho?
- It was a game in which we all left with the feeling that we could have won. We had the opportunity to score the first goal of the game in the first half, it hit the post and then due to an individual error we ended up conceding the goal to Moncarapachense, then we had to chase the result... that's part of it. In the second half we started with a different attitude, we went after them and managed to win the penalty that equalized.
- How did the game go?
- I played a normal game... but I think it should have been more vertical and taken the team forward at times, but everything serves as a learning experience.
- Is ownership to be maintained at the reception against Elvas, this Wednesday, at 3pm?
- Well, we're going to play three games in the space of a week, the manager has to manage the squad, the decision is always his. We will see…
- Are success in the Taca de Portugal with the victory in Pêro Pinheiro and this draw in Moncarapacho signs that the team is on the road to recovery?
- Yes, we have gone three games (Real, Pero Pinheiro and Moncarapacho) without losing, it is a sign that a lot has changed and we have to continue our performances and results.
- Good expectations for the game against Elvas that takes place this Wednesday?
- At home, we have everything we need to leave the game with three points, we just have to believe in the work we have done and I know we will be able to win. It's a game to win!
