An interview with Beto, posted on PortuGOAL page.

In the semi-final of Portuguese Cup Benfica won first game 0:2, but in the second leg game Porto was better. They won 3-1 in Lisbon and advanced to the final.

“Benfica started the game with an advantage of two goals but we believed it was possible to win here, and it was a champions’ win. At the end of the 90 minutes we proved we are one of the best teams in Europe playing football now,” said Beto.

As for his individual situation at the newly crowned champions, the 28-year-old Lisbon born stopper admitted he would like to play more, but the fact he is not first choice has not dimmed his international ambitions.

“I would like to play more, but Porto has three great goalkeepers and only one can play. The most important thing is that I am ready to play any game – cup, championship, UEFA – everything. [The national team?] Yes, a return to the national team is one of my targets, one of my objectives.”
