Hupu News November 17th: In the World Cup European Qualifiers, Portugal swept Armenia 9-1. After the game, Portuguese midfielder Joao Neves, who scored a hat trick in this game, accepted a post-match interview with the media and talked about his views and feelings about the game.

About the 9-1 victory in this game

"We played a great game, and scoring goals is the inevitable result of teamwork. In fact, we have created such scoring opportunities in many previous games, but failed to grasp them. This big victory was exactly the result of daily training and on-the-spot execution. Perfect presentation. "

About my performance in this game

"My game philosophy is always the same - from the first minute to the last minute, we paid more attention to the content of the game rather than the score. "

Talking about wearing the national team. The first goal in the jersey

"This is a game of special significance. Not only because he played in the Eusebio commemorative jersey, but also because he completed his first goal and first hat trick in the national team, these will be eternal memories. "

When asked about the direct free kick goal, Does it mean that he has become the team's set-piece penalty taker?

Neves responded modestly: "Not so. The second free kick was taken by someone else. We follow the principle of 'whoever is more confident takes the penalty kick'. There are many outstanding penalty kickers in the team, and I am just one of them."
