Cacau and Tuco on Sporting's win over Barcelona

Sporting’s two goal scorers against Barcelona took a moment to speak with the press at the final whistle on Saturday night.

“We played really well. We knew what we would have to do if we wanted to win this. This was just the first-half, but we have started well. We were strong and we achieved our objective of being in with a fighting chance in Barcelona. They are a side with some of the best players in the world, but today we played as a team”, said Cacau, dedicating the win to his brother.

“It was a good game. However, there are still 50 minutes to go and that is a lot. Barca are a good team and they will fight to turn it around. We have to carry on believing in ourselves, because Barca aren’t going to change anything and they will play for the win”, affirmed Tuco, going on to comment on what was a fierce atmosphere: “I really want to say thank you to the fans. They created a fantastic environment and our opponent felt the pressure.”
