We will have to maintain maximum concentration, says Nicolas Gaitan – Liga Sagres News
Benfica’s Nicolas Gaitan has claimed that although the side are in a great position in the league and Europe, they will have to maintain their concentration to end up with silverware when the season concludes.
The Eagles have been in imperious form in the 2011/2012 campaign until now and have not lost a single fixture on either domestic or European front.
Jorge Jesus’ men forced three points out of Otelul Galati in their UEFA Champions League fixture on Tuesday and are in contention, alongside powerhouses Manchester United, to top the group.
In the league, they are currently 2nd in the standings but are level on points with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/SC-Braga-c40460. Their 2-2 draw at Estadio do Dragao against the Portistas places momentum on their side but Nicolas Gaitan isn’t carried away and believes
that the team should maintain focus rather than thinking about the future.
Speaking to reporters, the attacker revealed that in order to lift the Liga Sagres trophy and make it to the latter stages of the UEFA Champions League, the Lisbon outfit will have to maintain complete focus on their upcoming matches as it won’t be easy.
"We will have to maintain maximum concentration in the next games, whether they are in the league or in the UEFA Champions League. As we have seen, things will not be easy for anyone.” Gaitan enthused.
He also reiterated that although he hardly got on the score sheet, it did not matter to him as he only wanted Benfica to gain three points and secure victory in all their matches.
"The important thing is always the result that the team achieves, no matter who scores. It is the team that wins games and that's the spirit we have within the Benfica,” Nicolas Gaitan was quoted as saying.
With one of the most talented squads in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 and a sensible coach in Jorge Jesus, Benfica are well armed to win the Primeira Liga.
However, in order to do so, they will have to channel their energies into all the matches they play and not get complacent for the rest of the campaign.
