After three matches, FC Porto has a goal difference of +9 in the League, a feat that had not been repeated since 1951/52. 74 years ago, under the guidance of Argentine Eladio Vaschetto – winner of the Arsenal Cup, exhibited in the club's museum – the blues and whites scored 13 goals and conceded four, with wins by 2-3 against Oriental, 6-1 against SC Braga and 1-4 against Salgueiros. Despite finishing the season in third place, this start was notable and culminated in another victory over Barreirense by 3-2.
Under Farioli's command, the team combines evident offensive effectiveness with great defensive solidity, having kept a clean sheet in the first three matches. In comparative terms, Farioli surpasses Sérgio Conceição (8/0 in 2017/18), Vítor Bruno (7/0 in 2024/25), André Villas-Boas (6/0 in 2010/11) and Julen Lopetegui (6/0 in 2014/15).
The triumph over Casa Pia, with a four-goal difference, stands out as the first result with that margin in 2025. To find an identical outcome, it is necessary to go back to December 2024, during the tenure of Vítor Bruno, when FC Porto beat Boavista by the same score.
