No mercy from Boavista
Luverdense will want this one forgotten quickly: 7‑1, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Boavista were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Isael scores twice — 8.05
Two goals and a mark of 8.05 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Ryan Couto turns FCI Levadia down
“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

A falling-out at Boavista
Crystopher and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Nobody could stop scoring
8 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Boavista and Luverdense in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

One of our own: Felipe Braga joins the Boavista first team

Boavista promote Marcelo Borges from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Marcelo Borges has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Samuel Amaral steps up from the Boavista academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Samuel Amaral has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
