Farioli on a “mature display”: “Rhythm, hunger and spirit” | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli said he was very pleased with both the performance and the result against Estoril, in FC Porto’s 1-3 win.

Match analysis: “It was a very mature game. A very well-played game in the opening minutes, with good spells on the ball. I think it was a game in which the scoreline could have been wider in the first half. We scored three goals, but we could have scored at least two more. We need to keep improving, because if we want to put the game to bed earlier, it will be better for everyone.”

Whether intensity made the difference: “It was the tempo, the hunger and the spirit. It was a mature game, with a strong identity in what we want to do. The result could have been even bigger against a team that scores a lot of goals. It was a deserved win.”

The importance of set pieces: “It’s very important, but in the end everything counts. Over the 90 minutes, there are many passages of play, moments of transition, everything has special value and we try to give special value to everything. Then the most important thing is the players’ execution, and that’s why, with their quality, we have the chance to score good goals.”
