GUILHERME ROMA, PLAYERS OF FUTURE player, was used during the 90 minutes of V. Setúbal's visit to Torreense's ground in the 21st round of the South Zone of the National Under-19 Championship. The Sadina team was defeated (1-0) in a match in which GUILHERME ROMA wasted a penalty during added time but which clearly demonstrates the courage of taking charge of the punishment. Pep Guardiola, one of the best coaches in world football, argues that "there is nothing more dangerous than not taking risks" and that "if today you failed it was because you took responsibility and didn't want to fail, tomorrow you will hit again and you will score ».
- How did the game in Torres Vedras go?
- Above all and in particular, satisfied with my commitment and availability to the game.
Knowing that the central defenders were physically very tall and very strong in the air, I tried to counter their attributes, working hard without having the ball in an attempt to escape marking and unblock my teammates in order to drag down the opposing defense, taking advantage of the transitions in the aspect offensive.
In the defensive aspect I felt active and supportive, always wanting to help my teammates.
- And the team, how was it?
- Actually, we didn't play a good game. We didn't have the ability to put into practice what we know how to do and demonstrate our real capabilities as a group. Frankly, that's my opinion of everything I experienced as the game unfolded. We were not the real Vitória!
- How do you analyze the penalty kick?
- Since I've been playing football, I've had the misfortune of missing two penalties... but I've also been rewarded for being lucky enough to have scored a lot of penalties. Missing the penalty in the 93rd minute of the game in the context and framework of the match, I can guarantee that it is a source of tremendous frustration, a feeling of enormous impotence, profound sadness and incalculable anguish.
Looking around me, seeing my teammates and staff devastated, hearing and seeing the opponent's satisfaction... It was horrible!!! I am an athlete with a very unique characteristic, coolness and discernment in moments of greatest stress I consider it to be an asset. After 24 hours and with a cool head, I wanted to score the penalty again. It's moments like this when family and colleagues are fundamental.
- What is the reason for being called upon to take the penalty?
- During the working week, set pieces, including penalties, are trained. As a result, our technical team defines who the penalty takers are. For this game, another colleague and I had this mission…
-A visit from the Academician of Viseu is coming. Expectations?
- It will certainly be a game that will not lack intensity from either side. We will try to play a positive game, we will want to win, for that we will have to outrun our opponent, we will have to play as a team in perfect unity between sectors. I'm sure we will leave everything on the field in favor of the desired victory. We want to be happy and for that victory will be the least we can hope for.
I am confident that we will finish the first phase with a beautiful victory.
