What Rui Vitoria said about Victor Moses

“Another goal for the best player in world football. What a pre-season Victor Moses is having. The match turned out to be successful for us. Before the game, I asked the team to act in an organised and compact defense.
“I was glad that they succeeded, thanks to which the opponent did not have a lot of chances. Ahead, we also showed ourselves well, we stretched the opponent and coolly deployed attacks. Especially in the first half when they could have gone beyond two goals.
“In the second half, we continued what we had begun, we ran away great in counterattacks. I am grateful to the guys for such a match.”
