After a goalless draw at Alverca Covilhã, this Saturday, in the first leg of the Ligue 2 play-off, which decides the last leg of the tournament, Leonel Pontes, coach of the guests, commented on the episodes of the meeting in a flash interview to Channel 11, while Algeria spoke with the club MEDIA.
“In the first half hour we showed a very good game. We had to score, Alverchi’s goalkeeper was the best on the field. Then we went down a little. The second half turned out to be more even, each team had its own opportunities. We are ready to achieve our goal, it was above average,” said Leonel Pontes.
“It was a very difficult game against an opponent who didn’t want to open up. There were few scoring chances, there was a very strong struggle in the center of the field, a lot of balls in the air. Draw and we’re still in the first half. If we analyze the result, in the last round we played a draw here with UD Leiria, and they said it was bad, but we went there to get the result we needed. We come into the second game knowing that we are strong away and that gives us more confidence,” said the Alverca coach.
