Statements of Sergio Vieira, coach of Estrela da Amadora, after the defeat against Vitoria Guimarães (0-3) in the 18th round of the Portuguese League Pitklic. “I would like to start by leaving a word to the family of our fan who left, wherever he is he is always with us because of the energy he always devoted to Estrella. We are touched by this because it was one of our fans who left. “We will fight to give him happiness. Unfortunately, the game was decided by small details, some offensively, but also by playing in goal in which we were not balanced. Vitoria is having an excellent moment. It was “necessary not to make those mistakes so that they are linked to the match. After that, the expulsion is also a sign of the match. We must be very strict, not giving positions to the opponent because mistakes against these teams are costly,” the team coach began by saying: Team Amadora.

He concluded: “Soon, we can be much stronger at all levels.”
