In the quarter-finals of the Portuguese football cup The Dragons continue to defend the title in their visit to Nacional in the Choupana.
Nacional as expected could not justify resistance of Sporting in last league day when I bet against 9.5 goal attempts, host took 6 while guests 24!. This proves that a club from Madeira really struggling when it comes to fight against top teams in a country.
Luís Freire in his conference speech said that These games (against top clubs) are really tough and that is the reality. We have very little time to prepare[...] (physically). We have always had a lot of rain and wind in this area, and we have been training under these adverse conditions[...] It has been a rough season for his team when Nacional is only in 11th place in the league, with 13 points and one game less.
Sérgio Conceição showed increased concern for the state of the pitch, after all it is enough to remember that last Friday Nacional and Sporting face each other in a 'mud field'.
