It's the final result of the collective work of our disciplines, very positive for us, and it's a source of satisfaction. We would have liked a few more medals. They were within reach, there was determination from our teams, our coaches, and the various disciplines. Therefore, I think Portugal is doing well in figure skating and it has to be seen that way in the context of the World Games," the 62-year-old official began, speaking to the Portuguese press in the Paraguayan capital.
