Farioli: The tie’s not over, what happened in Stuttgart stays there | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli warned about the dangers of Stuttgart during the press conference previewing the second leg of the UEFA Europa League round of 16. The FC Porto coach downplayed the importance of the advantage built in the first leg in Germany (2-1): “It’s better to have a small advantage, we’re happy, but we must consider that it’s 0-0. Tomorrow will be a different game, and we have to approach it with the desire to win.”

Farioli mentioned that they will face a team that will come to Dragão with great intensity and that it will be necessary to respond with the same ability. “We’re going to face a team that will come here with great intensity and we have to be able to respond. The advantage is in the past. What happened in Stuttgart stays in Stuttgart, and tomorrow at Dragão we have to play all our cards to move forward,” stressed the coach of the blues and whites, anticipating a Stuttgart faithful to their style, albeit with “small adjustments.”

The coach did not rule out the possibility of making further rotations in the team, highlighting the depth and quality of the squad at his disposal.
