“It was in our hands to maintain first place. But the championship is a long race, not a sprint. We improved but didn’t score. We have to accept the 0-0 score and learn,” Roger Schmidt said this Sunday in a flash interview.
The German said he had identified the team’s “problem”. “We needed to score, but we didn’t score. Friday [Farense] we will have another opportunity to win,” he said.
The coach also admitted that the opponents had a good start and that his team needed 10/12 minutes to get into the game. Asked whether the draw was fair, Schmidt minimized: “It doesn’t matter. We wanted to win and we could win.” He also justified the replacement of Florentino and Joao Neves as a need to “inject more energy into the team.” The coach did not hold a meeting after the game because there was no translator, Moreirense’s staffer explained.
