After suffering their first defeat of the season (with Nottingham, in the Europa League), FC Porto will face Moreirense, in Moreira de Cónegos, on Monday, October 27th, (8:15 p.m., SportTV), with the aim of returning to their triumphs and increasing their lead over rivals Sporting and Benfica, who won in the ninth round of the I League.
“In football, we win, draw and lose some games. We are doing everything we can to always win, because that’s what FC Porto demands”, said Francesco Farioli, justifying the offensive drop in the games with Benfica and Nottingham Forest: “I think the two performances were positive, not brilliant, but it also depends on the way the opponent plays. Since I’ve been here we’ve won 92% of the games.”
Asked about the fact that Gabri Veiga is very influential at FC Porto, but only played 90 minutes in a single game, Farioli explained that the Spaniard did not have an easy adaptation and that the secret is to manage his playing time well.
The dragons’ coach also warned about Moreirense’s good championship. And the coach of Moreira de Cónegos’ team warned that he does not buy draws in advance. “FC Porto is the most competent team” in the I League, but Moreirense’s ambition, according to Vasco Botelho Costa, is to win today’s game, in the ninth round of the I League.
