The FC Porto squad experienced another different afternoon, this time at the club's museum. The Dragons organized a visit for the team led by Francesco Farioli, with the aim of bringing everyone closer to the blue and white history.
André Villas-Boas was also present and stated: “We are all passengers at FC Porto, but while we are here, we will honor this great institution.”
After visiting the 27 thematic areas of the space, the main squad gathered in the museum's atrium, where former Dragons' legends welcomed them, with the international trophies as the backdrop.
The eternal captain, João Pinto, addressed “a Porto team” to congratulate them “for the attitude” and assured that “all the fans see themselves” in a team “closer to winning than before.”
Rui Barros, in turn, recalled the times when he played with João Pinto in the Antas locker room and stated: “Mystique cannot be bought. It was felt in the intensity of our training and in our daily life.”
The B team assistant, Paulinho Santos, also praised the group led by Farioli: “It has been a pleasure to watch you play. That is mystique. A Porto player serves FC Porto. We give our best for the club and we have to be much better than the others to win.”
Lucho González, also an assistant, but for the main team, concluded with the conviction that those who are at the club “are there because they have all the values that FC Porto represents. Not just the club, but the city…”
