Francesco Farioli spoke in the press room after the derby between FC Porto and Benfica. The Dragons won 1-0 and the coach highlighted the role of the training camp in the Algarve in the victory of the blue and whites.

«Impact of the training camp in the Algarve? There are many aspects. It was very special for several reasons: the quality of the work, four days with very intense and committed sessions; families with us, which created an important feeling that is rare in football. It was a mix of the desire to give more and to provide clarity. The biggest change was knowing who we are playing for, in our attitude and commitment. It was fantastic. It was celebrated in the stadium and says a lot about the spirit in the locker room, the connection with the fans is becoming greater and stronger. The end of the game, the atmosphere, it’s not something that happens every day. We have to make the most of it. The preparation for the match against Vitória SC is already underway and we have to keep moving forward».
