Pedro Moreira: We will draw conclusions from this match

Pedro Moreira: There was a great atmosphere at the stadium. We knew that the opponent had a high level and they played very well. We lost the ball a lot. We need to work on improving our level. We conceded the second goal on the counterattack. In the second half we were active in offense, and in the first part of the match we did not manage it. We must admit that the opponent showed soccer worthy of the victory and the result. We should be ready for matches of such a high level. 

We knew the strengths of FC  Al Hilal, they actively move forward from the flank. The attacks in the middle of the pitch are started by the edge defenders. We could not withstand such a pace. We are at the stage of building a new team, there are big changes in the squad compared to last year. In Tashkent we played with confidence.  

We made a lot of mistakes at the beginning of the game. We often left the opponents' players alone with our players. But I think that we played in an organized manner, only there were a lot of unnecessary mistakes. The opponents have a lot of high-level players, and they showed their skills. With Caio Cesar in the lineup we can also show very good soccer. We will draw conclusions from this match, but we will play different soccer in the Super League. 

We thank our fans who supported us wonderfully at the stadium. Despite the fact that they were outnumbered, they supported us very actively. We will also wait for them at the championship matches. We can say that we have shown a good result, reaching this stage in the tournament. It is impossible to play at a high level after four matches.
