Abel Ferreira praised Palmeiras at the debut of the FIFA World Cup. This Sunday (15), Verdon was drawing 0-0 against Porto, in a match valid for the first round of the tournament.
For the coach, the match was “balanced”, with full prominence for Claudio Ramos, goalkeeper of Porto, who shone with great defenses during the match. It is worth remembering that the archer only had one opportunity on behalf of the holder of the position.
“Balanced game, but football is so magical that one of their best players was injured, who was the goalkeeper, and the best of Porto today was the goalkeeper, who was a substitute, made four, five defenses. Palmeiras had a lot of chances, but Porto had a goalkeeper, defended everything and we could not score,” Abel said in an interview after the game.
“Now is to recover, see what we can take from here and continue,” he said.
