“The fans, from the beginning, accompanied us everywhere. They make transfers, they pay their entrance. We are all more than proud to have this fan. She feels a lot. Today it was a plus that they let us in. It left us quite hurt and instead of feeling sorry, they can’t lock up the herd. It is impossible. We feed on that. It was a plus that we had to respect what we felt with them”.

We had had a good tournament, but we didn’t stop at that. Let’s go for more. It is our way of being and working. This competition suits us well. It’s kill or be killed. We feel comfortable in these instances. We have to keep going. We haven’t sealed what we want. “We are happy and thinking about what is coming, which is the most important thing of the semester”
