FC Porto back Bednarek and keep title focus after Europa exit | OneFootball

FC Porto left the Europa League with frustration, but their display against Nottingham Forest has underpinned a swift response. According to O Jogo, confidence in the dressing room remains unshaken.

The squad rallied around Bednarek, who quickly processed a grave mistake and helped set the tone for the reaction.

From public messages to the mood inside the camp, the theme was the same, heads up and counting down to Sunday’s match against Tondela, which opens the final five rounds of the league.

The primary objective is the title, and the players still felt they could have reached the semi-finals of a European competition, 15 years after the club’s last, another reason their belief in their qualities stays intact.

Pride was a word echoed by Diogo Costa, Thiago Silva, Fofana and William Gomes in social media posts.
