According to Tasnim news agency, Sergio Concessão said about the reasons for changing Porto’s starting line-up, including the benching of Mehdi Tarimi in the match against Academia Viseu in the quarter-finals of the Portuguese Cup: I have to be consistent about my words outside and inside the dressing room, because I count on everyone and every An important player. Players who could not play much before played against Academico Viseo. On the other hand, we had a game three days ago.
The head coach of Porto added: I generally looked at maintaining the physical health of the players. We have a competitive team, and in order to fight for a place, the team must be competitive. Every player deserves the minutes they get.
Mehdi Taremi entered the field from the 87th minute in Porto’s match against Academico Viseu this morning.
