Martin Anselmi brimming with optimism ahead of Boavista game
FC Porto's star goalie, Diogo Costa, took center stage in yesterday's training session as the squad readies for their clash with Boavista in the 33rd I Liga round. But, there's a twist: Costa, the usual shot-stopper, has been restricted to limited training, and his participation for the game at Estádio do Bessa on Sunday at 20:30 is uncertain.
On the other hand, midfielders Marko Grujic and Vasco Sousa are still under treatment, handling their workouts in the gym.
With Diogo Costa's incapacity, Claudio Ramos has taken over the goalkeeping duties in the last two games with impressive results. He was spectacular during the game against Moreirense at Estádio do Dragão, making a fantastic save that prevented Moreirense's second goal. Porto eventually emerged victorious with a 3-1 score.
The Porto players will return to training on Wednesday at the Olival training center.
