After driving the palm trees one more title from liberators last Saturday, this time defeating the Flamengo, Abel Ferreira received special congratulations and made a point of posting them on his Instagram profile. He was remembered by the president of Portugal and the president of the Portuguese Football Federation.
“For me, it is very important to thank you and, fortunately, these days I have received thousands of congratulations, from all over the place. But as I never hide, my homeland, Portugal, always weighs heavily on my heart, and that is why , I want to publicly thank two congratulations in particular, from two great Portuguese institutions”, said the two-time Libertadores coach.
Abel made a montage and joined the two messages of important figures for Portugal and its football.
“My thanks to the President of the Republic of Portugal, Professor Doctor Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, and also to the President of the Portuguese Football Federation, Dr. Fernando Gomes, for the congratulations they addressed to me and which I am very proud of!”, he concluded.
