We could make history - Joao Real

Defender feels Naval could be impactful in title race

joao_real.jpgNaval will host Sporting Braga on Sunday and the navalistas could end up having a huge say as to whether Braga will remain in the hunt for their first ever championship.

In order for that to occur, Benfica will need to earn a victory against Olhanense the night before. But in the event that the Aguias do, Naval could very well stand in Braga's way in keeping up with their Lisbon rivals.

"We are just pawns in someone else's war," said Real bluntly. "The fight for the title is between Braga and Benfica. Above everything else, we do not have to do favours for anyone."

"We have a philosophy that our objective is to win and place ourselves as best we can in the standings."

"Life is made up of small occurences and this match could make history. In our first meeting, Naval was the only team to take points away from Braga at their stadium."

"If we do the same this Sunday, we could write history in this year's edition of the Liga as the team who eliminated Braga from the championship race."
