What people are saying
Foram três pontos importantíssimos, perdemos alguns pontos importantes em casa em alguns jogos que merecemos ganhar, mas o futebol tem disso e calhou as coisas florescerem hoje.
Sofremos um golo que fica por entender, tivemos cabeça numa casa difícil, onde tive o orgulho de vestir a camisola, e demos a volta.
Muito feliz de poder entrar e ajudar a equipa, agradeço ao míster.
Foi com o peito ou com a barriga, não importa. O que importa é que entrou.
