Famalicao coach left praise for Rio Ave, but warned they will go to Vila do Conde for the win
The Famalicao coach was full of praise for Luis Freire, as he previewed Saturday’s match against Rio Ave. Joao Pedro Sousa admitted that he “admired” the Villacondense coach because, even without reinforcements, he maintained a team with “such great competitiveness.” However, the Famalicenses go to Vila do Conde aiming to take all three points.
“We will find a very competent competitor, who has already worked for a few years and with a technical team that is also very competent, in fact I admire the coach,” stated João Pedro Sousa.
For the coach, Rio Ave is “a team with great quality and the ability to retain most of the players from last season.” But on the other hand, she faced “enormous difficulties due to her inability to strengthen herself.” “Rather, it leads us, the coaches, to think and understand how to do it [Luís] He added: “Freire was able to extract a lot from this team and show great competitive toughness.”
However, Famalicao’s thoughts are just one: “It’s a tough challenge, against a good team, but our goal is to try to win.” Joao Pedro Sousa says the break in the tournament was “very important” to give the coaching staff “continuity of work”. He concluded: “It was very productive, and from what we understood, we were able to improve some things.”
