Hours after the derby between Benfica and FC Porto, Artur Soares Dias left a message of satisfaction for the work done on social networks.
«They may not believe it and may find it difficult to understand… There is no better feeling when you finish the 25th derby/classic and feel that FOOTBALL has won. That the most relevant was the show and the players, regardless of any lapse that some might want to find», he wrote on Instagram.
During the derby that FC Porto won, Soares Dias scored 28 fouls and showed the yellow card eight times, having annulled, after resorting to VAR, a goal for the blue and whites.
«The greatest victory we can have is to continue to receive respect and recognition from both parties for the effort put into valuing the sport that we all love. To all those who trusted and contributed to get here, thank you», he also wrote.
