Francesco Farioli was asked about the pattern he applies at FC Porto of making the first substitutions almost always around the 60th minute. «I always conduct a very careful analysis and like to follow the plan on a physical level. If at this point we are where we are, it is also thanks to this management. I am very grateful to have a squad that allows for this management. We have this example between Mora and Gabri and between Alan Varela and Pablo Rosario, which are quite unique examples. We also saw this between Oskar and William Gomes. So, yes, I always have a plan for the game but with room to adapt according to the game», he explained.
