Rui Borges, Sporting coach, speaking at the press conference ahead of the visit to Gil Vicente, this Friday [18h45]counting for the 17th round of the League. The Leonine's coach addressed Benfica's punctual distance. Benfica is a candidate for the title “Benfica? I think he's a candidate for the title. Last season is quite demonstrative of this. They didn't have ten points, but I think we had eight points in second place, if I'm not mistaken. And they recovered, they gave us a point. There's a lot of game left. There are many moments for the team, if they manage to maintain their rigor, their consistent performance throughout all the games. Therefore, there are still a lot of points left to play for. Clearly for me, Benfica, in this case that you asked me about, remains in the title race, no matter how big the difference in points. In football, a lot had already happened. There's nothing extraordinary, honestly. Even by the example I gave you. I think he's in the running. Of course the margin is smaller. Porto is having a great first round. It’s about waiting for us to do our part, rather than worrying about Benfica.” Make history? Sporting wants to win «In what is one of our objectives, Sporting, as is logical, wants to win all the trophies in which it is included, it wants to be competing in the finals. We will do a lot for this. The cups, the championship, as I just said, we will fight hard until the end for it. Because in the end, everything will be a consequence of our work and our ability. If it's a double, if it's not a double. This is all a consequence of what our work will be. I'm not focused, if I make history by doing two doubles, no. I want to win. I want to win the next game. Therefore, it is a lot of game by game and we want, above all, to compete for all the trophies that we are involved in, regardless of whether or not we make history as a double, a double. We really want the third championship, that's for sure, but we have to work hard to achieve that.”
