Franceslim Carvalho, in the match preview with Famalicao, said that the next two matches will be semi-finals and finals, without acknowledging the fact that playing after the rivals in the maintenance struggle – Moreirense, Tondella, Aruca – confers any kind of advantage.

“The pressure should always be there, we’ve had it, it’s part of the profession. Now the math will be done at last. I was saying it would be the last, athletically, and it looks like it will be.

What I said to the players and to you [jornalistas] is that we can only look at what we can do. We have one certainty: an opponent played yesterday [Moreirense] It no longer catches our eye if we win both games. What I said is that we don’t have two finals: we have a semi-final and then a final,” he said.

As for the opponent, who will go to Jamor with guaranteed maintenance, Fraclim Carvalho said it will be necessary to be attentive: “I told the players that we cannot believe that Famalicão comes here relaxed. If there is some wear, we always pay attention to the last photo We are willing to know that Famalicão will not give us anything.

Frankel Carvalho cannot count on six players, between suspended (Sithole and Sandro) and injured, to receive with Famalicão, and given the lack of left-back Chima Akas, confirmed that Nilton Varela will play.
