Benfica travels, Friday, to Arauca (7 pm) for the match of the 19th round, before the semi-finals of the League Cup quarter-final against Boavista.
Nelson Verissimo, who has already played three matches against the team, since the departure of Jorge Jesus, was asked what he lacked in a win, a draw and a defeat.
From the match with FC Porto [o primeiro]What we analyze is independent of circumstances and outcomes. We can only get a more positive view in the face of positive outcomes, but we realize that the results did not live up to expectations. There are things we have done well and others we have to improve. The team comes from a different position than what we are asking now, we are changing with the championship in progress and without training matches, unlike before the season. We have to make changes with the tournament in progress, knowing that this carries some risks. We have to improve, analyzes are in progress. “The path is the most correct and the answer will be positive,” said the coach.
What do you expect from Aruka? “We know that regardless of the bride’s classification [é 17.º classificado], we will find a team with a team quality that he hasn’t been able to show yet. We have to focus on the way we play, but we’re ready for a low mid-block to explore shifts in what might be our mistakes. The only goal is to get the three points.”
