Sérgio Conceição is very critical of referee Andris Treimanis at Manchester City-FC Porto

Criticism of arbitration: “We are a pioneer country in VAR, on occasions I have questioned one or another decision in our country, but, from what I saw today, I must apologize to all the referees and VAR of our country, because if there is a competent country in relation to to what I saw here today, this is ours The bet on City’s first goal … the bet that Fábio Vieira fails [golo de Gundogan] It is not a fault … other fouls, equal or worse, can be blown … there is a penalty for Pepe at the end of the first half, which is a penalty anywhere in the world. They hurt us and it was a bit bitter because we had everything for a positive result, which was victory ”.

Player Delivery: “I think the first word has to be for the players. We changed the usual structure, with some newcomers, but it was something that we worked on and, strategically, we felt it was important to cancel some of City’s strengths and then explore. Which we did very well in the first half. If we had a second goal, in Marega’s situation, I think it was justified, because City had failed to create danger in the first half. At 60 ‘and a few minutes later, the The game changed, because City took advantage and that made it difficult for us. Luís Díaz had physical limitations, we had to change two players: Manafá went to the wing and Corona went to the left. Then we went to try to reduce the handicap in the scoreboard … In this game, contrary to the frustration I felt at times during the championship game [com o Sporting], I was very proud of what the team did. “

Moving on to the next stage: “It is the first game of the group stage and I am convinced that we will give a positive response in the next games and we have a voice in the passage to the next phase.”
