This League round features great games: Braga-Benfica on Sunday and Sporting-FC Porto on Monday. Without wanting to reveal who is playing better, Jorge Jesus commented on the current round of the championship and praised Sérgio Conceição’s work in the blue and whites.
“I think that FC Porto, of the two rivals, has been the team that has surprised me the most. Because FC Porto looks for players from Paços de Ferreira, Estoril, I don’t know, Moreirense… and it’s still up there. In my opinion, Sérgio’s work has been spectacular,” he told Sport TV. “Sporting has a huge association mass, FC Porto has a huge association mass, Benfica even more than either of the two. Apparently not, this then has an influence on the games, especially away. And at the moment the championship is balanced” , continued.
The Al Hilal coach also praised Braga’s sporting project, a club he previously played for. “Braga is also having a very good season. The president, António Salvador, is someone of great size, who has made Braga a great team. They are among the three strongest in Portugal. The championship will be summed up at three. Braga will be there, but I think they still won’t be able to have that projection and that balance, because when you play to be champion it’s one thing, when you play to have a good season it’s another and the big teams have an advantage” , he stressed.
Guaranteeing that he will watch the two main games of the day, Jorge Jesus admitted that he misses the Portuguese championship. “We always miss it. We always like the clubs we worked for, such as Benfica, Sporting and Braga. I wish them the best of luck in the world now in international competitions because we have to score, we have to stay in the first 5/6, which is so that Portuguese teams can then enter directly into the Champions League and not just the champions”, he concluded.
