BOLA – Fabril can bless several firsts in the eleven (FC Porto)

FC Porto will return to the competition tomorrow and the first of a cycle of 11 games to be completed by the end of the year could serve as a springboard for some dragons who have played less. For this reason the visit to Fabril Barreiro (11th place in the Serie G of the Portuguese Championship), referring to the 3rd round of the Portuguese Cup, seems more like a sort of window of opportunity for players like Nanu, Felipe Anderson, Romário Baró or Toni Martínez , who haven’t even completed 90 minutes of action, despite FC Porto having already played ten competitive matches (seven in the league, three in the Champions League).

But there are still those who have played less or have not even made their debut: Loum, which a year ago cost more than seven million euros, sets a record of only three minutes of use, while Carraça or Cláudio Ramos, precisely two of the ten summer reinforcements FC Porto, not a minute played.

There are also cases like that of Taremi, who has also played nine games (he has not entered the options against Olympiakos), even if he has not accumulated more than 178 minutes and continues to wait for his debut as a starter. What could really happen this Saturday, given that the Iranian striker – who signed one of the three goals with which the dragons promoted the overturn, against Portimonense, in the last round of the championship – was not even the selection. The Persian ace has chosen to stay at Olival to accelerate Sergio Conceição’s adaptation to football, which invites forwards to journeys full of intensity and aggression.

Since the difference in status between FC Porto and Fabril Barreiro is so marked, and because the following Wednesday in Marseille there is the Champions League, no one will be surprised by the revolution of the Biancazzurri eleven, at the launch of the campaign to defend the title of winner of the Cup Portugal. . Diogo Costa and Diogo Leite are other elements that can benefit from the chair dance: last season, in fact, the guardian was even number 1 in this event.
