Corriero Delo Sport, major italian paper, previewing Lazio match with a special piece on the main man (who PFDC claimed was benchwarmer just a few days ago lol)...

Lazio, watch out for Taremi: Porto is counting on the 'new matador'

In Portugal they incensate the Iranian player: he scores a lot and serves assists, Conceicao aims at him in the Europa League

ROME - Number one danger of the Porto: Mehdi Taremi . Iranian striker, 29, is scoring continuously this season. Lazio will have to be careful. He is not one of those players who get applause and compliments, but this year he is proving he can handle the high standards. Imposing physique, fast, sense of goal. In the Portuguese Liga 21 appearances, 12 goals and 8 assists. In total, including the Champions League and the Portuguese Cup, he made 31 appearances, 14 goals and 10 winning passes.

Taremi is the new matador

Porto fans, the Portuguese press, praise him on the eve of the match against Lazio. After a long period of fasting he is having a great time. Against Sporting Lisbon, in the last round of the championship, he scored his fifth goal in the last six games played. He only skipped the match at Maritimo because he was in the national team. Spearhead of Iran, he has led his country's team to the next World Cup. His goal against Iraq and all of Tehran in celebration was decisive. Conceicao is counting on Taremi, the man of goals, to beat Lazio and make the next round safe in the first leg. The biancoceleste defense will have to be careful.

Lazio defence has been strong in 5 of the 6 last games - no goals conceded in those 5 and the other game a 4-0 thrashing by AC Milan in the Coppa Italia.
Just saw that Lucas Leiva is still playing for them - I don’t think that guy ages.

havent watched Lazio play forever, but generally speaking imo, just take out Ciro outa game and they'll likely struggle scoring and winning for that matter..... that sleek fker is clutch AF .... always comes up with key goal or plays that gets Lazio outa sticky situations..!!
he is to Lazio what Totti was to Roma.... you fall sleep on him for a second and he'll fk you up da asss hard and there goes you EU run for this year..!

Conceição:

"Everyone knows about my time at Lazio. The moments, the fans, the titles won. It is an important part of my experience. I have affection for Lazio, but that counts for very little tomorrow."

BREAKING: Lazio striker Ciro Immobile is expected to miss the first leg against Porto due to flu-like symptoms.

In addition, Manuel Lazzari has been ruled out for several weeks with a thigh muscle tear and defender Francesco Acerbi is still out of action too.

^ Great job diz jaan. The fact that you have finally proved the existence of "wormholes" that theoretical physics has talked about for a long time and you can quickly go back and forth between California and Porto deserves a Noble Physics Prize

Go Mehdi!

Lazio is a scoring machine, they have scored 52 goals so far in serie a. But on other side their defense has been poor and they have conceded 39 goals which this means lazio plays some nice attacking in 4-3-3.

so IMO the match can go either way and i don't think it will be a draw.

Their best FW player is Immobile, scoring 19 goals in this season (21 serie A games). So if he is missing the game against porto then I am more than confident porto will win the game by 2 goals. Lets hope taremi is on the scoresheet tommo

In case others haven't heard (as I hadn't), a new rule has abolished away goals in UEFA knockout fixtures (including Europa League). Thus, aggregate match ties after the home-away games will go to overtime. Potentially making a very tough mid-week match with extra long matches as the tournament progresses to various knockout stages. Porto would do well to take advantage of the depleted Lazio to build their GD tomorrow. LET'S GO MEHDI!

Conceição shuffles beads on the left

OPTIONS After two games with Pepê replacing Díaz, Taremi emerged from the wing in the derby. When it was time to move, Galen had priority

Taremi played on the left in the classic Against Sporting, Mehdi and Fábio Vieira coexisted in the eleven and it was even the Iranian who leaned more to the left, a position he played in the past. Pepê still entered, but to the right...

Starting in the two games that followed the official departure of Luis Díaz to Liverpool, against Marítimo and Arouca, Pepê seemed to cement himself as the first option for the vacancy left by the Colombian. However, in the derby against Sporting, Sérgio Conceição surprised and showed a new alternative for the left wing, promoting Taremi's return to eleven, a situation that could be repeated in the reception to Lazio, of the Europa League. By keeping Fábio Vieira in the center, in direct support of Evanilson, he allowed the Iranian to break from the left wing. A new experience for Mehdi in blue and white, who, until then, had worked in central areas, either as a more advanced man or in the form of number 10. The calling card left before the lions was frankly positive, with assistance for the goal by Fábio and the goal (the 14th this season) that set the final result at Estádio do Dragão (2-2).

It is worth mentioning that when he headed the tie (78'), Taremi was already in the center of the attack, at a time when FC Porto was giving everything to reach the goal. At that time, the left side had another tenant: Galeno, a winter reinforcement hired from Braga. In other words, when it came time to change the team, Conceição gave priority to the Brazilian - the first to leave the bench, in the 57' -, and only later, in the 74', did he bring in the other wingers he had on the bench, Francisco Conceição and ... Pepe. In the case of the number 11, the role played was that of a very offensive right-back, in place of João Mário. A role that is not entirely unknown to the ex-Grémio, who, when he was at right-backs, shared the expenses of the position with Bruno Costa.

Returning to Taremi, it is important to mention that the derby was not, moreover, the striker's debut in more lateral terrain. Although occasionally, he played more on the left at Rio Ave, the first club he represented in Portugal, and in the national team, when Azmoun was used as a single offensive reference. With this option, Conceição confirmed that she has several plans designed for the post-Díaz period that she will adapt according to the players' moment and the idea she has for each of the games.
