Francesco Farioli was present at the press conference after the draw between FC Porto and Sporting (1-1), regarding matchday 21 of the Primeira Liga. Among the topics discussed, the Dragons’ coach was asked whether Benfica is also in the title race:
“That’s clear. There are three teams competing [for the title] and the table shows exactly that,” said Francesco Farioli, who went on to talk about the classic: “I don’t know if the game was boring, but it seemed to me that one team did more than the other to win. I saw a team that went out to press all over the pitch and another that was very conservative. There are no regrets, the team did everything that was asked of them. As for the result, we were very close to winning a very important game. Sporting managed to come back in the final minutes and we couldn’t keep another clean sheet.”
