Ludogorets’ coach – Stanislav Genchev – returns to the tournament where he achieved two major wins in 2017.

All the players know the competitor’s strong points, we’ve done our research. All teams do that in modern football. I need the players to know their duties. I know how Braga will start playing but even if I am wrong, we still have a plan“.

It is important how we respond to the competitor. The group is evenly matched. I want us to show our true face and win“, the coach added.

Winning gives you confidence, and we have yet to win. This is our purpose and we want to continue ahead in the tournament”.

Goncalves has played seven times against Braga and spoke about this competitor.

Braga is a strong team with great players. They have one of the best coaches“, Goncalves commented.

There is no recipe for success. All we need is to win by showing confidence. There is no other way to defeat any team”.

We have an important match and we need to please the fans. We must win despite having a strong competitor. Braga adapts against the other team. We need to be careful and to focus on every detail“, Goncalves concluded.
