He's quite good with the ball in the ground: dribbles well, makes nice combinations with other players, finds himself in good positions to shoot (altho he doesn't seem to be a great finisher). The problem is that his crosses are terrible, and that's a major flaw for a winger.

Nevertheless he seems to be settled in the starting 11.

Naval 0-2 Porto

Naval: Taborda; Mário Sérgio, Paulão, Gaúcho (Cazarine, 73m) e China; Gilmar, Orestes e Pedro Santos (Tony, 53m); Fajardo (Saulo, 53m), Nei e Lito

FC Porto: Helton; Bosingwa, Pepe, Bruno Alves e Cech; Lucho, Paulo Assunção e Anderson (Vieirinha, 79m); Quaresma; Adriano (Jorginho, 65m) e Hélder Postiga (Lisandro, 73m)

Goalscorers: Marek Cech (10m), Mário Sérgio (26m, own goal)

w00t.

1st half OK, 2nd half dullsville.
You guys seem to get lucky with the defenders you encounter, one per game decides to score a goal on his own net...

Oh, and IMO, Sektioui (or Tarik, as everyone in this damn country likes to call him) is below average. But I can't talk much...

Paulo Jorge, Manu, Marco Ferreira..

But yeah, Tarik's last 2 matches were terrible. He wasn't on the team against Naval, and I'm not expecting to see him back anytime soon.

I have yet a bit of confidente in Manu (for last season) and Paulo Jorge (meh, new kid. Whatever). Not on Marco Ferreira. I mean, if he was any good, he wouldn't be loaned to Guimarães and Penafiel, when he was on Porto...
... and Sektioui used to play, some years ago, on Marítimo (you should remember him - even though he only played 2 games). If he wasn't good enough to attract Porto then, heh... blame Jakobus' hiring policy (Sonkaya...).

As far as I know he failed at Maritimo because he had a serious injury, didn't stay here for long.

trust me when i say he sucks (tarik), i really mean it lol

it was a big surprise when i heard he signed for porto

Jacobus' great signings... then he leaves so that someone else can deal with his screw-ups.

Great to see Postiga back to form, been a loooooooooong time. Brilliant work in the first goal. Anderson and Lisandro were two excellent subs at half-time.

Video with the goals:



And finally, here's a picture of our friend Tarik Sektioui who unlikely managed to score our 3rd goal friday:



Difficult game for the Champions League next tuesday, on Arsenal's field.

nice goal from tarik

Good (and expected) win Also nice to see that Porto supporters haven't forgotten his second-ever goalscorer from all times...

Heh, for us, yet another astonishing result. Is there any other team in Europe with as much red cards as points? Fernando Santos 4 president!

Fernando Santos is not exactly a great manager (perhaps the only to have managed Porto, Benfica and Sporting and been hated by fans of all 3 clubs ), but i don't think he's to blame for this result. Lots of important players missing in the team, and conceding a goal out of the blue in overtime is just bad luck.
