"Direct qualification is a bit complicated but we can reach the group stage even if we have to go through a qualifying round," he told uefa.com. "This year Benfica reached the quarter-finals when nobody believed we would and I'm looking forward to playing in the UEFA Champions League again. I think we can do even better next season." SL Benfica的後卫Anderson相信自己的球队即使最後不能拿到第2名， 下赛季依旧能重回欧洲冠军盃。 「直接晋级有点复杂，但只要我们通过资格赛也能晋级到小组赛阶段。」 「今年的Benfica在没有人相信我们能做到的情况下打到了1/4决赛， 我相当期待能够再度在欧洲冠军盃上亮相，我想我们下赛季甚至可以做得更好。」 'Last chance' Anderson played alongside Alcides, Leo and Luisao in Benfica's impressive all-Brazilian back four that helped propel the Lisbon club to the last eight of the UEFA Champions League. In the league, however, Benfica have stuttered and now need Sporting Clube de Portugal to slip-up at the weekend if they are to have a chance of a direct return to the group stage. Sporting need just one point from their final game at home against SC Braga to be sure of finishing second behind champions FC Porto. Benfica must win at FC Pacos de Ferreira to have any chance of avoiding the third qualifying round. "We have a last chance to achieve direct qualification to the group stage and we will do our best," Alcides told uefa.com. "Then we will see if Sporting lose against Braga." Anderson和Alcides、Leo、Luisao这4位巴西人一起组成了Benfica的後防线， 帮助这家里斯本的俱乐部在今年的欧洲冠军盃里前进到8强。 但是在联赛上，Benfica还需要Sporting的失误来取得直接晋级小组赛的席位。 Sporting只要最後一轮在自家主场从SC Braga上面拿到一分就可以拿到第2名， 而Benfica则必须要拿下对FC Pacos de Ferreira的3分才有希望。 「我们还有最後一丝机会拿到直接晋级到小组赛阶段的门票， 我们会尽全力，再来看看Sporting是否会输给Braga。」 'Confident' Sporting have given their neighbours a helping hand in the past. Their 1-0 defeat at the Estadio da Luz in the penultimate game last season let Benfica snatch the title at the death. Sporting lost against PFC CSKA Moskva in the UEFA Cup final days later and finished third in the league. Sporting have won both of their ties against Benfica this season meaning that Ronald Koeman's men must beat them on points to claim the group stage berth. "Even if we have to play a qualifying match to reach the group stage next year I'm confident we'll progress," Leo said. "Benfica are a very big side and command much more respect in Europe. We must not fear our opponents. Our opponents have good reason to fear us." Sporting过去也曾经帮助过他们的邻居， 他们上赛季倒数第2轮在光明球场0-1败给Benfica也帮他们在最後关头拿到冠军。 最终Sporting在4天後输给PFC CSKA Moskva，而在联赛也只排在第3名。 不过本赛季Sporting赢了主客场对Benfica的2场比赛， 这也使得Ronald Koeman的球队必须在积分上超过他们才能确定小组赛的席位。 Leo说：「即使我们要打资格赛，我也有信心我们能够通过。 Benfica是一支强大的球队，在欧洲赛场上也赢得许多尊重。 我们必须不惧怕自己的对手，而我们的对手有很好的理由惧怕我们。」 'Feel at home' A main reason for that is the strength of the back four. "Of course it helps when the defenders are from one country but the communication between the whole team has been decisive when it comes to the positioning of the defensive line," Leo added. Having his compatriots alongside him has certainly helped Anderson in his first season in Europe. "I came here just one year ago but with the help of the other players I have adapted well. European football is very different but I think I have done a good job. Besides that Portugal is a wonderful country to live in. We speak the same language, the weather is fine and the food is delicious." If Benfica can improve upon their UEFA Champions League performance of this season, their Brazilian defence might find even more reason to feel at home. 一个主要的原因就是4位後卫。 Leo说：「当然当後卫们都来自同一个国家是有帮助的， 但是和整个球队的沟通也是有决定性的。」 有了自己的同胞和他一起踢球也帮助了Anderson在欧洲的第一个赛季， 「我才刚在一年前来到这里，但是有其他球员的帮助让我适应得很好。 欧洲足球是很困难的，不过我想我做得不错。 同时葡萄牙也是一个很棒的国家来居住， 我们说同一种语言，这里的天气很好而且食物也很美味。」 如果Benfica在欧冠的表现能再进步， 那他们的巴西後防线会有更多的理由感觉就像在家里一样。 -- ███ █ ◢██ ◢█◣ ███ █ █ █ █ █ █ “我只属於葡萄牙， ██ █ █ █ █ █ █ 我只会是里斯本的儿子。“ █ █ ◥█◤ ◥█◤ █ --
