FC Porto takes swipe at Benfica: “Now deniers must try harder…” | OneFootball

Farioli had already drawn attention to this fact, and FC Porto has now reaffirmed it: the Dragons are the Portuguese club with the most titles in their trophy cabinet. After winning their 25th Super Cup yesterday against Torreense (1-0), Porto now have 88 trophies, overtaking Benfica, who have 87. The Eagles had regained the lead in the previous edition of this competition, but FC Porto drew level again by reclaiming the Primeira Liga title. In “Dragões Diário”, the blue-and-white club also took the opportunity to leave a message for the… “deniers”.

“FC Porto was already the Portuguese club with the most official titles, but there were still those who stubbornly refused to accept that fact. From now on, the deniers will have to try harder: with yesterday’s Super Cup victory, the National Champions now total 88 trophies and further enhance the most richly stocked museum in the country. After ‘a great achievement’ in ‘complicated circumstances’, Francesco Farioli spoke of ‘a very important result’ and turned his focus to the season’s main objective. ‘Winning was essential and we did it, so now it’s time to celebrate and then we’ll start preparing for the start of the league,’ said the coach, pleased to ‘put an end to the discussion over which is the most decorated club in Portugal’”, reads FC Porto’s daily newsletter.
