Farioli hails Benfica and Sporting: “Derby showed we match giants” | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli is already preparing for the second leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-final against Sporting. In the preview of this decisive match, the FC Porto coach said he believes in a comeback, while also praising the two main rivals in Portuguese football.

Possible domestic double if they win the Portuguese Cup: «In reality, we approach every game with the same desire. Every weekend we have to pick up points. What Sunday’s derby proved is that we compete with two giants, very strong teams that will fight for the league title. Tomorrow we will have a huge game. We go step by step — tomorrow it could be 90 minutes, 120, or penalties. It has to be played well, physically and mentally.»
