Vitinia: Last season was fantastic; it would be great if I could rank as high as possible for the Golden Ball selection

Vitinia is currently following the Portuguese national team to participate in the European qualifiers in the World Cup, and the player was interviewed a few days ago.

has been seldom injured

I don't talk too much about this issue (laughs), I don't know why, I don't know. Sometimes it's luck, maybe it's genes. Of course preparation is very important. Now every player is professional, and injuries will eventually happen to those who are most vulnerable to injury. Fortunately, I haven’t. I don't want to talk about this more, I hope I will never be hurt.

João Neves was shortlisted for the Golden Ball

He deserved it, and deserved it. He is one of the 30 candidates and he is a special kid. I was so happy to see how great he had in the last Paris game, and I don't remember anyone else who was able to finish a hat-trick with two barbs, even more so for a midfielder, which is commendable. We will continue to pay attention and cherish the opportunity to fight alongside him.

The accumulated fatigue of the double match between clubs and national teams

I am not suitable for discussing the organization of the game and the schedule, such as when should I take a vacation and rest. I can feel that there are a lot of games, but I don’t like to complain, I like to play football, which is the best career in the world for me. But sometimes the game is too stressful for everyone, not only the players, but also the coaching staff who work day and night for it. This is also very difficult for the players. That's how it is, and in my case, I can only say we feel the same way.

The 2026 World Cup Dream

Who doesn't want to win the World Cup? I failed to participate in the European Cup, we also won the European Cup, and the UEFA League won twice, and luckily I participated. If you can win the World Cup, it would be perfect. We must now focus on the qualifiers stage, we have enough strength to advance, and that is the goal we are going to strive for.

Talking about the Golden Globes

I think the past season was excellent, it was a fantastic season, and I will definitely remember it in my heart. I hope this is not the best, there will be better in the future, last season was a near-perfect season, I feel good, I am indeed on the Golden Ball shortlist, I feel like I can strive for a good ranking, but again, for me, it is already good to rank as high as possible.
