Andre Franco was reborn for Porto, gaining a place in the team as a left-back. In this position, a big surprise for the blue and white team was the victory in the Portuguese Cup over Vilar de Perdizes (2-0).
Andre Franco, in his natural position as an attacking midfielder in the eleven, was adopted by Sergio Conceição as a left-back and the manager’s bet clearly won. He scored the first goal and assisted Evanilson on the second, confirming the Cup triumph. The 25-year-old is in his second season with the Dragons after leaving Estoril. Given the injuries to Wendell (inflammation of the left Achilles tendon) and Zaida (left thigh), Sérgio Conceicao bet on the midfielder. The performance was magnificent and guarantees the next games, starting with Antwerp on Wednesday, in the Champions League. This season, Franco took part in seven matches, scoring one goal and making two assists.
