Francesco Farioli previewed the Casa Pia – FC Porto match, which is part of the 20th round of the Primeira Liga. In a press conference, the Italian coach discussed the condition of the pitch in Rio Maior after the storm and expressed solidarity with those affected by the bad weather.
“As I said, the pitch will most likely not be in the best condition, but this is about much more than tomorrow’s field. Everything that has been happening in the country has left us concerned and with mixed feelings. A few days ago, we experienced a similar situation in my own country, especially in the city where my wife is from. As we have seen on television, many people are left without a roof over their heads. It’s true that tomorrow the pitch will most likely not be in the best condition, but that is nothing compared to everything people are going through right now.”
