In the red squad, João de Deus, Pietra (assistant coaches), Fernando Ferreira (goalkeeping coach) and Luisão (director) were also positive, leaving Jesús alone with assistant Tiago Oliveira to prepare for the quarterfinals of the Cup. of the League, because even before the Dragão game he had lost Márcio Sampaio (physical recuperator) and Mário Monteiro (physical coach).
