The striker also says he enjoys playing for coach Sergio Conceicao.
“It is a pleasure to play with this shirt and in the Champions League,” Leao told Amazon Prime Video.
“We do fantastic work; This was a very important match moving forward, and we are happy with how it went. The atmosphere in the dressing room is great and we are starting to understand what the coach wants from us.”
About Conceicao and former coach Paulo Fonseca, Leao continued: “They are different coaches.
“The most important thing today is the mentality: we must always stay focused. He never lets me go and asks me to always stay switched on. In the second half we defended as a team and managed to hold on to the lead.
“He tries to help me as a man and as a player, and I try to understand what he wants. He is the kind of person who is willing to die for his players, and I try to do the same.”
