FC Porto’s coach avoids addressing the moment that irritated the Dragons’ bench during the game against Forest.
After the defeat against Nottingham Forest (1-0) which resulted in their elimination from the Europa League, Francesco Farioli avoided answering a question about a moment that angered the Dragons at the City Ground.
In the second half, a ball went missing from one of the cones near the Porto bench. Lino Godinho, Farioli’s assistant, had to fetch another ball to place it in the correct spot so that play could resume quickly. This incident, in fact, prompted a protest from FC Porto to the fourth official.
In the press conference, Farioli avoided the topic. “Let’s concentrate on the game, because after a performance of this level, that’s what we should be talking about.
