Only a win would keep Sporting in the title race. Anything […]
It’s been another week of controversy and incident in Liga NOS with Sporting (once again) providing most of the drama: Maritimo Win!

Another week of mental Liga NOS action saw 30 goals fly in across the nine games with Jonas scoring none of them and Aves getting five! Let’s see what happened: Aves Go Wild After winning for the first time under Jose Mota, Aves were on the up heading into matchday 22 but a trip to […]
It’s been another curious week in Portugal with surprising results and a huge blow to VAR. Boavista Fans Inadvertently Foil VAR We start this week at Aves, a team I said last week needed to get their finger out soon if they wanted any chance of staying up this season. Well, lo and behold they […]
Another week has passed in Portugal and we’ve had all sorts of shenanigans and action going on. There’s been a trophy decided, transfers in and out, and a rather curious opening ceremony as well as another round of league action.

Inspired by the 5 Live World Football Phone-In and a comment Tim Vickery made, I’m running this week long series to figure out just who is the worst world class player in the game today. It’s a bit of an odd question as we look to find the worst of the best. Tim said Carlos […]
Matchday 19 in Liga NOS was one of drama, action and moments of excellent quality. Well, unless you were watching Maritimo against Belenenses. Here’s what happened this week in Portugal: Changes At The Top It’s all change at the top of the table thanks to one surprising result.
