"It's really exciting to played and given my all for this shirt in 100 games ", commented the Brazilian."In the first half, we played really well, but we gave them a bit of space in the second half and they punished us for it. We’re disappointed we didn't get the win we needed. We’d aimed to win all five games before the derby, but we got a draw in the last one. We have to continue on in this vein if we want to win things this season".
