\u201cFirst of all, it\u2019s important to say it was a very beautiful football match, sometimes we complain, today we should say bravo,\u201d said Cardoso in his post-match reaction.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeautiful football game, played with fair play, a tough match but fair play from both sides.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of commitment, obviously a lot of energy, I think we deserved a little bit more, we had control of the match in the first half, I think we totally managed the match.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe suffered a goal from a mistake; we had to run again try to go for a draw and we finished the game in the top trying to score the second goal.<\/p>\n
\u201cI reinforce \u2013 bravo on the football we saw today. Bravo from my players, a lot of capacity, a lot of quality football we saw today. Important to understand that this team is a team that\u2019s being rebuilt.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe lost Keanu, Tebza now, we lost Jayden, Arthur and Nuno Santos and the team is sustaining.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m obviously happy by what I saw and it\u2019s important when someone falls the other one should rise so bravo good, beautiful football afternoon.\u201d<\/p>\n
