After the game, the head coach of “European Celesao” Roberto Martinez shared his impression of his own team.
“We have a football holiday, and this is the most important thing. The national team is not to criticize or discuss the coach, this is to be proud of and enjoy the players we have.
Today we have seen the mixing of generations. Bernard Silva with 100 matches, Kenda on the bench. This team is very special. I would like to tell all the Portuguese that they should be proud of their team.
We wanted to win a second match because the game in Denmark has not taken place for us properly, we accepted it, but today we used the advantage of playing our fans, which I congratulate through the creation of a special atmosphere that helped us a lot. We showed a game that I am very satisfied.
The players who took to the field showed the work to which they have made efforts over the last two years, not just the last two days. To kill five goals is always incredible. We played very well and eventually defeated the Denmark team. Coach, controversy … All this criticism now makes no sense.
First, I would like to say that modern football has changed a lot. Ten or even six years ago, we always talked about some starting eleven. Today, teams are not just a starting eleven. There is a starting eleven and eleven that completes the game. There are also players who continue to be competitive and it is important to help them in the national team. It’s not easy.
Giovanni Canda is working very well, he grows, he has incredible potential, and I like players who give everything we expect from them as from those who are on the national team.
This is not the first time the players who go out on the field in the course of the game change the situation for the better. This testifies to the values of the team. Seeing Giovanni Canda is enjoying a game, learning from players who have 100 international matches already have a football luxury. I am very pleased with the players who started playing today from the first minutes, as well as for those who played in Denmark, and for those who will still show their qualities in the future, ” – said a Spanish specialist.
The next match of Portugal will be held in Germany in the semifinals of the UEFA Nations League.
