Porto coach Vitor Pereira has expressed his disappointment with the reigning champions' 0-0 draw against Sporting CP on Tuesday.

Pereira stressed that the Oporto outfit had set their sights on the full three points, and added that he therefore couldn't be satisfied with the outcome of the away match.

"We came here with the intention of taking the three points and we managed just one, so I can't be satisfied," said Pereira on the post match press conference.

"It was a fair result in an open game. It was not a great match, but it was an intense one."

Porto currently sit atop of the table with 34 points from 14 games and are on a 53-game unbeaten run in the league.

They hold a one-point lead over Benfica, but the Lisbon giants have a game in hand.

Sporting CP are the league's number three with 28 points from 14 games.
