PortuGOAL podcast: European action review / Porto-Braga preview

A look at the tunnel fisticuffs that led to Hulk suspension

In our latest podcast we analyse an exciting week of European action. Switching back to domestic matters, will Braga continue their phenomenal season and end Porto’s championship hopes on Sunday night?

Also we take a closer look at the ins and outs of the now infamous Estadio da Luz tunnel set-to.

 

 

Part One: All three ties involving Portuguese clubs in the Champions League and Europa League are finely poised after the first leg. PortuGOAL picks the bones over Porto’s win against Arsenal, Sporting’s narrow defeat at Everton and Benfica’s draw in Germany against Hertha Berlin.

 

 

Part Two: Braga refuse to bow to the logic of the dominance of the traditional powerhouses of Portuguese football. As Domingos Paciencia’s men get ready for another stern test of their new-found status as title contenders, we look ahead to the huge match coming up against FC Porto at the Estadio do Dragao on Sunday.

 

Hulk now knows his fate as the Portuguese Disciplinary Committee come down hard on the Porto forward. Recorded before the punishment was announced, in this pod we take a closer look at the actual incident and aftermath that has landed the Brazilian in such hot water.
