Hulk castigado

F.C. Porto, Blog Portista, Dragões, Azuis e Brancos 17 August @ 04:43 PM EST

Hulk foi expulso com cartão vermelho segundo o relatório de Carlos Xistra após palavras depois do brasileiro ter apanhado o segundo amarelo.Hulk apanhou assim cartão vermelho e como tal o castigo aplicado passará de um para dois jogos muito provavelmente. Acho a situação injusta pois o brasileiro apanha pancada de princípio ao fim e não se vê qualquer admoestação por parte dos árbitros.

Quem fica e quem sai

F.C. Porto, Blog Portista, Dragões, Azuis e Brancos 02 July @ 04:52 PM EST

Até ao momento o plantel do clube ainda não está fechado no que diz respeito a entradas e saídas e como tal ainda muito vai acontecer.Em relação aos jogadores que ainda faltam colocar, alguns terão expectativas de ficar no plantel azul e branco mas o mais certo é serem todos emprestados. Talvez hajam dois ou três que merecessem uma oportunidade mas o nosso clube teima por vezes em desperdiçar a qualidade de jogadores que possui.

Mais portugueses para quando?

F.C. Porto, Blog Portista, Dragões, Azuis e Brancos 11 June @ 05:04 AM EST

Ontem, dia 10 de Junho, festejou-se uma vez mais o dia de Portugal. E perguntámos nós, há alguma coisa para festejar, a mim não me parece. No panorama futebolístico as coisas também não estão famosas. A nossa selecção de futebol até dá pena e poderão dizer que o Queiroz é que é o culpado mas ele não é o único.

Thank goodness for the Eredivisie, where 37 goals were scored in nine matches this weekend, including eight in the Twente/Sparta match. Even the lowest scoring match saw AZ Alkmaar defeat Heracles Almelo 2-0. Click to continue reading...

AZ Alkmaar was able to do what few clubs have been able to do this season in the Eredivisie and that's win while leading the league, defeating FC Groningen 2-0 on Friday. Ajax moved into second place, not so much by virtue of its 1-1 draw with Utrecht, but because NAC Breda was surprised by a 0-4 butt-kicking at the hands (feet) of Sparta Rotterdam.
