“We have to win every game, whether it’s this one or Sunday. It’s inherent in the size and stature of this club, even the infrastructure that allows us to achieve our goals, which are always great.” This is how Daniel Santos, Braga coach, took responsibility and favoritism for the game this Thursday (20:30, in Braga) against Servette (Switzerland), referring to the first leg of the third qualifying round of the Europa League.
Daniel Santos acknowledges the value of his opponent: “They are an experienced team, with methods that come from behind and are difficult to counter,” he guarantees. However, he stresses the need to win: “Whether we play first at home or away, we must win every game, regardless of the opponent. It is a two-legged tie and it is always important to get a positive result in the second game,” he said.
If Braga makes it to the playoffs, they will face the winner of the match between Austria’s Rapid Vienna and Turkey’s Trabzonspor at this stage.
