Casa Pia defender Vasco Fernandes, speaking in the SportTV flash interview after the defeat at home to FC Porto (3-1), in the 13th round of the League:
«We knew that FC Porto would react, they are a great team, Mister Sérgio instills a fantastic spirit in this team. We didn’t start well, they managed to reach 1-0 before the 15 minutes. Then we managed to balance it out, but the second goal was very tough for us. We wanted to react, but we were not effective. Congratulations to both teams.
[Esteve afastado da equipa durante algum tempo, agora com o novo treinador, Pedro Moreira, está de regresso] These were difficult times for me and my family, things were said that were far from reality. I have a 20-year career, I have always been respected in six countries, an integral image in Portuguese football. None of what was said happened, far from it. I managed to overcome it with the people closest to me. When the manager arrived, he said that we were starting from the same situation and I was one more person to help. At the end of the day, the objective is to stay in the League for a long time. It’s difficult, but it has to be with the help of everyone: those who play and those who are left out.”
