„Porto“ saugas Casemiro believes that the Portuguese club is capable of reaching the UEFA Champions League final.
Julen Lopetegui's team surpassed the „Basel“ barrier in the quarterfinals and will face Munich's „Bayern“ in the next stage for a ticket to the strongest quartet.
„We are among the eight strongest teams in Europe. It is obvious that we are competing successfully, but there is still a long way to go,“ the Brazilian told the official UEFA website.
„We have already proven that we are capable of going far, but we must look at each match separately. We have to think about how to play well at this moment, then how to do it in the semifinals and finally in the final.“
„We are improving every day, with every game, and I am convinced that we have even more potential,“ he added.
„Winning a tournament like the Champions League is simply extraordinary. I cannot put into words what a player feels when achieving such a victory,“ he expressed.
„I will simply say that we need to repeat what Madrid's „Real“ achieved last season, preparing for each match individually.“
The last time „Porto“ became the strongest team in Europe was in 2004 when they defeated „Monaco“ 3-0 in the final.
