Vitória FC, the team led by JOSÉ PEDRO, is on an extremely positive track record of results. In the last eight rounds in Series D of the Portuguese Championship, they won seven games and drew once, results that place the Sadino team at the top of the standings after the ninth round, with four more points than Moncarapachense. In addition to these numbers, another weighty argument: the best attack in the Portuguese Championship with 19 goals.
This Sunday (3pm), Vitória FC visits Campo Sanches Miranda to face Juventude de Évora in a match that is expected to be full of emotion and competitiveness. It was precisely there that we started the conversation with José Pedro.
- In the history of the four games between Vitória and Juventude de Évora, triumph has always smiled on their current club. Added responsibilities?
- I think the responsibility is the same since our first official game. Regardless of the opponent and looking in this case at Juventude, it is up to us to face the game within what could happen and enter with the objective of winning it. Let's go to Évora to win!
- What is your opinion of Pedro Russiano, coach of Juventude de Évora, given that they worked on Jorge Silas' technical team at Belenenses SAD? Reunion with friends?
- Yes of course. I know Pedro well. Also because of the fact that we have worked together as assistants, but now both in different contexts. Pedro is a competent coach who adapts well to his realities and the result is his past, which wherever he has been he has had good performances.
- Vitória has a ten point advantage over Juventude. Is the difference true to value between the two teams?
- Naturally, because there is this specific advantage, it is acceptable that there may be differences between the two teams, but that does not win games. We have to be at least at the level we have demonstrated to leave Évora with a victory. It's going to be a good show!
- Do you believe that the support of Vitória fans will be felt again in Évora?
- I think there will be no doubts in this regard. Our fans have demonstrated this in every field where the team plays and have been very important in our journey. In Évora it will be no different.
- Naturally, Vitória's focus is on climbing to League 3, but their excellent career in the Portuguese Cup is leaving many people surprised after eliminating Sanjoanense and Leixões. Next comes the visit to Penafiel on the 25th. How far can Vitória go in the premier competition of the Portuguese football calendar?
- Fortunately, we have had a good record in the Portuguese Cup and we will face the Penafiel game as we did in the first two rounds. Where can we get? It has to do with what the team can do solely and exclusively on the field, but our focus at the moment is only on the Juventude Évora game.
