Artur Jorge, coach of SC Braga, defended that Minho was not in crisis and that the project could not be called into question due to an “isolated game”.
In the press conference that precedes Moreirense’s reception, Thursday, for the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup, he underestimated the moment of the Warriors, who have won only four in the last 10 matches, in all competitions, and came from the defeat against Casa Bia, in the last round of the league (0- 1), which is the second in a row at home, after the defeat to Chavez.
“I find it difficult to make an analysis of the team moment based on only the last matches. We can analyze the last 10, but I might be interested in the top 10, where we won eight and drew one. Everything is relative.”
The coach also ensured that there was no “crisis” in Braga.
“We lost at home, that’s right, and that leaves us completely unsatisfied, but we won Estoril and Barcelos. We finished third in the tournament, and we have 25 points, which is one of our best results so far. We are the SC Braga team that has, in the last The past 13, the best record in terms of results. I don’t think there is any decrease or decrease in performance, as well as a decrease in efficiency. A project can never be jeopardized by an isolated game, the evaluation should be done more fair for these five or six months of The work that we have in front of the team”, he justified.
Regarding the cup match, Moreirense praised the prominent leader in La Liga 2, and called for “seriousness” in approaching the match.
“We know Moreirense is one of the teams that has won the best championship in La Liga 2, they have a huge advantage and they are a team that can compete in La Liga and aim to climb the ladder. We are looking at this match only with determination and expect that it will be very difficult,” he said.
SC Braga and Moreirense will face each other, starting at 19.45, at Municipal de Braga, a game to be run by Artur Soares Dias.
