City of Braga tournament, "Torneio Cidade de Braga."
No Ricardo Quaresma in the official FC Porto call up list
Penalty round: 4-3 (Bruno Alves, Hulk, Benítez e Pedro Emanuel)
Turns out they also have a penalty round at the end of the game in case there is a tie at the end of the tournament!
This is the other match I was following today. The first one was Lokomotiv- Chelsea. Two Portuguese internationals played: Bruno Alves, and Raul Meireles. On Sunday, August 3rd, Portuguese league winners FC Porto will face Italian Serie A side, Cagliari.
Defender Bruno Alves scored the 2nd goal, from a corner kick.
Check out the cover of O Jogo, August 2nd: Forward showed strength and technical ability
Hulk gave strength to the Dragao (play on words, name of home stadium, team mascot)
