The coach does not want “distractions” on the eve of the decisive game for the Championship Play-Off Passage.
Bruno Lage refuses to talk about the complaint Sporting made to the federation’s discipline council for alleged offenses to Fábio Veríssimo. On the eve of the game with Nice, the Benfica coach does not want distractions.
Sporting complained against Bruno Lage for alleged offenses from the coach to the referee and asks for an exemplary punishment. Faced with the theme at a press conference this Monday, Bruno Lage chose not to answer.
“We have a very important game for tomorrow, I don’t want distractions (…) now it’s ‘Nice, Nice, Nice’.”
The focus is on Champions’ play-off, without distractions.
“On the other side is a great coach, excellent players. Any team at this level can win away. We won out, they have this competence. That’s why I got here I didn’t answer half of the questions because we have to be very determined and concentrated. There can be no distraction.”
And if in a team that wins, it doesn’t move, Bruno Lage could bet on two strikers in the front of the attack.
“In a short time, the understanding between the two was very good, which makes us really satisfied. For us the important thing, regardless of playing with both, is that the work of Ivanović, Pavlidis, Henrique Araújo has been very good.”
Aktürkoğlu was the highlight of the training this Monday. It is an option for Bruno Lage, unlike Bah, Nuno Félix, Bruma and Manu, who are still out.
