Hugo Canela praises his players for Saturday's dominating Challenge Cup showing against AC Doukas

Sporting CP put on a convincing performance in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals this Saturday, establishing a 12-goal lead ahead of the second-leg tomorrow against AC Doukas.

Coach Hugo Canela was understandably satisfied, peaking with radio journalists at the final whistle: "Our objective was to win by as many goals as possible and we played really well in defence, which let us go forward on the break and build up such a big lead in the first-half. The second-half could have been better, but it is normal. We came into this on the back of some tough games and we are still recovering a bit."
