Pedro Lima started against Lourosa, could get another chance v Nacional | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli took advantage of the training match with Lourosa (2-2) to try out the solution he is likely to favor on the right side of the defense on Saturday. With Alberto Costa and Martim Fernandes still recovering, the Italian coach fielded only Pedro Lima, on loan from Wolverhampton, in that position, signaling his intentions. Nevertheless, he still has more days and sessions to test alternatives, especially since the international players have not yet returned, which limits training options. Pepê and Nehuén are possible options, although the Brazilian may be needed in attack if William does not recover.

Regarding the match, the goals for FC Porto were scored by Samu (7′) and William Gomes (65′), while Miguel Teixeira (15′) and João Vasco (90′) scored for the II Liga side. The main squad featured Cláudio Ramos, João Costa, Pedro Lima, Moura, Tomás Pérez, Zaidu, Pepê, Samu, Borja Sainz, and De Jong. From the B team, António Ribeiro, Kaio Henrique, Felipe Silva, André Oliveira, João Teixeira, Kauê Rodrigues, Ángel Alarcón, and Tiago Silva took part, along with U19 players André Miranda and Filipe Sousa.
