Carvalhal’s match quotes

Last-minute away victory made Portuguese Manager a happy man

‘We knew it was going to be a tough match, but we needed a win to strengthen our qualification chances. They put up a real fight in the closing stages and even managed to draw level, but Quaresma showed his class in stoppage-time. We had numerous chances before his goal only to waste them all. I used the same lineup we played against Trabzonspor because we were real effective in that game. Now, we take on Stoke City at home to wrap up the group stage. I am sure, with the support our fans, we’ll come out with our heads held high.’
