A slightly ropey first half for both teams, getting into promising positions but wasting them regularly. Though Semedo should have scored with his chance early on.
Podence on the right annoyed me as he's just not effective there and couldn't get on the same wavelength as Semedo. Play him on the left or not at all in future.
Raul's goal was a superb run and finish from Sa's long punt forward, showing strength, agility and composure. Absolutely made up for him. He deserves it and hopefully the first of many more this season.
After that it was a case of digging in and trying to close out the game with them pressing forwards. I thought the team defended really well for the most part, with Sa being the pick of the bunch making good saves, reading danger and positioning himself perfectly. He was my MOTM.
Massive 3 points for the team and Lage.
