Porto defender: He has deployed his defense against Messi before the game and was disappointed to be reversed
Early this morning, Porto lost to Miami International 1-2 in the Club World Cup. After the game, Porto defender Ze Pedro accepted an interview with the media.
Ze Pedro said: "We knew before the game that our opponents would use their personal abilities to make breakthroughs. They spread their positions on the court to create defensive chaos. But we dealt properly in the first half, and I don't remember that they had an excellent opportunity. After they scored in the second half, the morale of the whole team was obviously frustrated."
"That goal was like a blow, and I felt that we could not handle the adversity. At that time, we should have united to win, and the score was originally a draw. Unfortunately, we failed to win in the end, and everyone was very sad."
In this game, Messi scored a wonderful free kick world wave, and Ze Pedro admitted that the team knew the extraordinary strength of the Argentine superstar: " We all know Messi's ability and focused on deploying his defense before the game. "
"We could have entered the midfield with a greater advantage, but we were only a little luck. The champion teams often get the favor of the goddess of luck, and we lack this today. In the second half, we also lacked enough aggressiveness against Miami International's offensive." In the last round of the group stage, Porto will face Cairo's nationals. Ze Pedro said: "We will do our best to win glory for Porto. Although the situation of qualifying is more serious, we must do our job well. We must apologize for disappointing fans today, and at the same time ensure that we will do our best to win the next game."
