Francesco Farioli: “We could have wrapped it up in the first half”

Francesco Farioli, FC Porto head coach, at the press conference after the win over Estoril (3-1) at the Estádio António Coimbra da Mota, in a match from the 29th round of the league.

Was it important to return to winning ways today, also with a good performance?

«Yes, I think the performance was very positive. In the first 45 minutes we were at a high level, we were very good on the ball, we scored two goals and could have put the game to bed in the first half. We delivered a mature performance, with a strong identity, but we did not keep a clean sheet».
