Set-pieces lethal again for FC Porto: 3-1 at Estoril, lead secure | OneFootball

FC Porto struck again from a set piece and made it 2-0 against Estoril Praia from a corner, on their way to a 3-1 win in the 29th round of the Primeira Liga.

The moment came in the 32nd minute in Amoreira. From a corner taken by Gabri Veiga, Victor Froholdt found himself unmarked and headed dangerously toward the near post. In an attempt to stop the ball from going in, Xeka deflected it into his own net, increasing Porto’s lead.

The move confirmed FC Porto’s effectiveness in these situations, in a match where Francesco Farioli’s side once again showed great ability from attacking set pieces. Before that, Pepê had opened the scoring in the 14th minute, and Estoril later pulled one back through Begraoui. Froholdt would also go on to score Porto’s third goal.

With this result, FC Porto returned to winning ways in the league and stayed top of the table, adding another show of strength in one of the areas where they have been most consistent throughout the season.
