Farioli hails Luuk de Jong: “Showed attitude and leadership” | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli appeared in the press room to review FC Porto's 3-0 victory over Sintrense. The Italian coach began by offering high praise for the return and performance of Luuk de Jong:

“Starting with the second half, it was fantastic to have Luuk back after 10 or 11 weeks out, both for the team and for him, of course. I think today he proved his attitude, not only technically but also with his leadership. He had some opportunities where he could have finished and chose instead to look for an assist for the team. And that’s great. Besides that, I think our performance was solid, really professional, with good intensity, short combinations, good spacing, trying to patiently break into the opponent’s low block. It was a positive result, a positive performance, and also with plenty of individual quality.”
