After Sporting's derby defeat (38-22), Benfica coach Jota Gonzalez hinted at some sort of conspiracy against his team, but did not accuse anyone. “I think there were many factors, but logically, we deserved to lose. If we could have won here. We know how the league is organised, how things are set up, so it's impossible. I think it was very clear.” What happened here, what happened recently is very clear. Since then the bad news has started, we missed a lot of clear shots at the beginning of the first half. We played very well in attack and defence. We made some mistakes in attack, in the central area, when we tried to recover the ball on the counterattack, we were unlucky with the rebounds, in the second half we were very frustrated. Every time they shot, they scored, and we failed a lot, the story of the Super Cup repeated a little bit.”
