Gil Vicente coach Daniel Sousa expressed his frustration with the team’s lack of offensive efficiency in their match against Chaves, which ended in a goalless draw on Monday night in Barcelos, closing out the 27th round of the Liga.[expander_maker id=”1″ ]
“Once again, we had loads of goal-scoring opportunities, but we weren’t fortunate enough to convert them. We worked solidly, sticking to our plan, but we just couldn’t make it happen. Despite the atypical week, the players and the team responded excellently,” Sousa stated in his post-match interview with Sport TV.
“We’ve won games in the past with only a quarter of the opportunities that we created tonight. With this attitude, we’ll undoubtedly be improving from here on out. Our current standing doesn’t guarantee what we want; we want more,” the coach concluded.
The Gil Vicente team has been inconsistent in their performances throughout the season, registering five wins, eleven draws, and eleven losses in their 27 league matches. They are presently in the 13th position in the league table, with 26 points.
Despite this, the team’s recent performances have shown a marked improvement, particularly in their defensive organization and ability to create chances. In their last six league games, Gil Vicente has only conceded three goals and has been defensively sound.
However, the team has struggled to convert their opportunities into goals, as evidenced in their match against Chaves, where they had several chances but failed to capitalize on them. The lack of offensive efficiency has been a recurring problem for Gil Vicente, and it is an issue that they will need to address in their remaining games.
Despite this setback, Daniel Sousa remains optimistic about the team’s ability to improve in the upcoming matches. He emphasized the importance of maintaining the same attitude and commitment displayed by the team, even in the face of adversity.
With six games remaining in the season, Gil Vicente will look to build on their recent progress and finish the season on a positive note. The team will need to work on their offensive efficiency and consistency in front of goal, while maintaining their solid defensive performances.
Overall, the Liga has been a highly competitive competition this season, and every team has faced its own challenges throughout the campaign. For Gil Vicente, it has been a season of ups and downs, but there is still time to turn things around and finish strongly in the league.[/expander_maker]
