"We had a cup match during the week, which lasted 120 minutes, and we played that virtually on the other side of the country. The long journey took a lot out of the players. This is not a fortunate thing, but the players are professional footballers, who have good stamina levels. We respect our opponents on Saturday, who have a really good manager in charge of them. I am sure that it will not be an easy game for us. The supporters are always there beside us, and always give us their backing. I would like us to pick up a result, which will make them all happy" - commented José Gomes ahead of Saturday's league match.
