Analysis: “I think the game was balanced, we could have reached the draw before or until we were in front of the scorer, we had clear occasions. We were able to react, it was late, but we tried and left a good image for a big club like the Maritime.”

Seafarer Display: “The result was not good, but there were good feelings after the departure in Guimarães, where everything went wrong. We have been working to improve this Saturday image, but we must look at the result and try to improve on Sunday, where we hope to have another result.”

What's missing? “ The team's been fine, we're a family on and off the field. The results, which is the most important, are missing. I believe a lot in this team, these fans who were here supporting the club on a Tuesday. I believe everything will be fine.”
