We were very pleased about his goal. For him it was fundamental to start scoring again. The last two weeks of training without matches in between have done him a lot of good. Adri is improving, he can be an important weapon for the team. Let's hope he doesn't stop scoring now.

The important thing is the victory, we managed to score three goals in a match that could have become difficult. It's fundamental for the team to continue to create lots of chances, we must take advantage of all the qualities we have in attack and try to kill off matches.

We respect Porto and know the game will be difficult, but we want victory at all costs and we know we can achieve it.

We cannot afford to underestimate any of our opponents but if we continue to play as we have done so far this summer, then we will qualify.

The European Cup is very important, but there are still a lot of games to play in the league and we want to start winning again as soon as possible so we can make the best finish to the season. But besides the championship we're still in the running for the Champions League and the Tim Cup . We want to win both these competitions.
