Farioli dedicates title to Costa, hails Villas-Boas: “3 mins to click” | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli analyzed FC Porto’s victory over Alverca. The coach’s first press conference after winning the title.

FC Porto beat Alverca 1-0 and secured the national championship, the 31st in the club’s history. Francesco Farioli commented on the match and the road to the title in the press conference.

“When I arrived, I said game by game. It may sound repetitive, but that’s our way. I started to realize it two minutes before the game. The most emotional moment was Jorge [Costa]’s flag. Tonight, I felt it even more than usual, with Alan Varela’s and Alberto’s blocks under his flag. It is no coincidence. From somewhere else, he helped us fulfill his dream. That was the message he gave me. I dedicate this to him, to the person who allowed me to be FC Porto’s coach, president André Villas-Boas. When we met, it took us three minutes to connect and feel that it was the right choice. To everyone who works with the players and to my family.”
