00:00Yeah that's is I think that resumes the the game we control the possession I
00:10think we were not the best team in in all of the game but most of the parts I
00:17think we were the best team we had the same situations in the first half that
00:23similar that that that the second and the third goal of Tottenham and that
00:27made a different I think we disconnect for eight minutes was really hard to
00:32recover for from that but then in the the lads did a great job to recover we
00:38were so near the draw so near and that could make the difference because we
00:43still have time to win to win the game but then the fourth goal was was really
00:49hard for us we managed to to respond but in the end it was not enough and we are
00:55out of the cup I I didn't look I don't I already said that in Portugal I of
01:12course my career is really small but I never speak about referees I will not
01:17start now I will try to maintain that for a long time I didn't see no it's not
01:34he doesn't have to do that is to focus we will see the game and we will improve
01:40every player of this team so we lose we win together lose together you already
01:45know guys that is not the individual is the team we could win even with all this
01:51this goals in the in the game we could win this game so let's focus on that I
02:05think was the period where we you feel it that we were in control but I in the
02:12first half we we suffered a goal but even in that situation we were
02:19controlling the in that moment we were controlling the game and we were near
02:23the the goal so I think we disconnect for eight minutes in the second half in
02:28that cost us the goal the game I think is really hard if you if you look at the
02:43game if you forget the long balls from Tottenham it's really hard to to to have
02:49a lot of pictures with five in the back so we are pressing high it's impossible
02:54to press I with five in the back so I know that you look at the system and say
02:58five in the back is not that is three defenders in my my in my view the
03:04question was sorry disconnect is simple as suffer a goal and then we have to to
03:10manage to have long possession to come down the game you you felt that we
03:15suffered the goal then the ball goes to to the middle and then we start we
03:20continue to play our way but we lose a lot of balls near our box with the with
03:25the team all open and we were really nervous in that moment and then once
03:30one long ball we suffer the third goal and then we managed to come down to push
03:37again and to score three goals so when I say to disconnect is something to of
03:43course we suffer the goal but we have to think what we should do when you suffer
03:48a goal you have to to to have long possession to come down it to stay in
03:53the game and we can do it
04:04no no no he's not that he's not a much if you if you feel that you I feel that
04:11I do the right thing for the team so it's never a mistake so we have to to
04:17make a selection sometimes you like it like in the game you feel that some some
04:23of the guys go go inside off the pitch and change a little bit the game
04:27sometimes it's like that so I think was not a mistake because I feel that I'm
04:32I'm only always doing the best for the team in my my way of seeing things
04:47I didn't feel that the eight minutes of second half was like that because we
04:56were losing a lot of balls and transitions was but I think we during
05:02almost all the game we were controlling the things playing the same way trying
05:07to find the spaces and I can feel it so for the for the fans was like that
05:13because there's a lot of goals and one team is recovering from 3-0 but I saw a
05:20team that knows what what we what want to do so was not chaotic in my I can I
05:30could not see the the chaotic in my team
