In the press room of Estádio do Dragão, after FC Porto's 2-0 victory against Stuttgart, a result that secured qualification for the Europa League quarter-finals, Francesco Farioli reflected on the full sweep of victories by Portuguese clubs, following Sporting and Sp. Braga:

«I think what we have achieved for Portuguese football is incredible. Last week, we secured another spot for the Champions League [in 2027/28], but continuing to add quality and points, I think any Portuguese person should be proud of all the teams that played in European competitions and those that are still in… it’s remarkable. But I didn’t have much time to watch the others, I was watching our game one day and, on the other, watching the entire Stuttgart game against Leipzig. We were busy, there’s not much time to watch football for fun.»
