Torreense chiefs learn from FC Porto before UEFA debut | OneFootball

A true introduction to European football ahead of their debut. Torreense officials were at Olival this Monday to closely observe the usual procedures of a club on the eve of a continental fixture. They took advantage of FC Porto’s training session, ahead of the visit of Manchester City, to learn about the routines that, from this season onward, will also become part of the day-to-day life of the Torres Vedras club. Porto were the opponents in the Super Cup – won by the blue and whites.

The visit had a specific reason. Torreense will take part in a UEFA competition for the first time, after winning the Portuguese Cup last season in an epic triumph over Sporting at Jamor. That achievement earned them a place in the Europa League league phase. With eight European matches on the horizon, the club decided to prepare in advance, seeking to better understand the operations and procedures associated with the eve of a continental match.

The debut is scheduled for the 17th, against Norway’s Lillestrom. If this Monday was devoted to learning from FC Porto’s experience, before long it will be Torreense putting into practice and experiencing the routines they have now had the chance to observe.
