Francesco Farioli was named the best coach of Liga Portugal for the month of August. The coach who recently arrived in Porto achieved this distinction after a season start in which he managed to beat Sporting 2-1, which is, so far, the only slip-up for Rui Borges' team in the competition.

According to the statement from the Portuguese Professional Football League, the Italian leading the blue and white team gathered 43.7% of the total votes. Without the presence of Rui Borges or Bruno Lage, the podium was completed by Hugo Oliveira from Famalicão with 26.19% and Vasco Botelho da Costa from Moreirense with 17.46% of the votes.

Despite not winning the best coach award, Famalicão is another team that has been heavily featured in Liga Portugal's choices for August. The team from Minho had the best goalkeeper of the last month, in the figure of Lazar Carevic, with 30.95% of the votes. The goalkeeper from the North of the country left behind names like Diogo Costa from Porto with 28.57% of the votes and Andrew Ventura from Gil Vicente with 9.52%.

It was not only in goal that Famalicão received distinctions. Justin de Haas was considered the best defender of the month, gathering 18.25% of the votes.
