Yes, a less than auspicious start to the season but it was the under-23's most of whom won't be getting another game unless sent on loan. The real stuff begins a week tonight, see other post.

Portimonense 0-2 Rio Ave.
Well, that's that for the Algarves contribution to the League Cup!

It's going to be hard season for them I think. Their league fixtures didn't show any Wednesday afternoon home games until January, so for me getting to see them play won't be too easy this time.

Farense bit the dust yesterday, going down 0-2 at home to Estoril.
On the plus side, crowd was 2062. Very encouraging for them as last season, even in a successful promotion campaign, they averaged not much more than 500.

The League Cup is now basically an U23 competition. The crowd at Farense last Saturday was 851. Thanks to Lofters for the information.

Portimonense lost 2-0 to Lille in their pre season game on Wednesday night. Video highlights at http://www.portimonense.pt/sad/noticia.php?id=10809

I am keeping a watch out for the first league fixtures. The first matches are going to be between 10th and 13th August but as as yet the TV companies have not yet decided the kickoff times. I will do the usual as and when information is available.

Not exactly pre-season..... but the better locals are kicking off their League Cup campaigns.

Farense have already sneaked through the first round, on penalties. They are next at home to fellow Segunda league Estoril on Sunday the 29th, 5pm.

Portimonense have to wait until Sunday the 5th, 4pm at home to fellow Primeira division  Rio Ave.

Cool

SC Braga 4 Hull City 1

Hull took a bit of a footballing lesson and their two XI's were well beaten by a very useful looking Braga outfit. Brief match report and pictures at https://www.hullcitytigers.com/

Braga's forward, number 20 João Paulo Dias Fernandes (Paulinho for short), looked especially useful.

Crowd about 350.

Some pictures I took.


The local birds were not at all put off by the thundering feet.


A sprawling save denied one of Hull's few chances.


A desperate challenge fails to prevent Braga's third.

Games at the Estadio Municipal : Benfica "B" play Orient Saturday at 19.30 and Braga play the scum Sunday at 20.00. Should the unmentionable happen on Sunday afternoon, I pity the police having to control a bunch of drunken Milwall thugs that night...   ]]> Mon, 09 Jul 2018 14:55:50 +0000 https://albufeira.com/forum/pre-season-games_topic10062_post105576.html#105576 <![CDATA[Pre Season Games : Well done sir.

Well done sir. Looks very comprehensive and well organised. Enjoy your visit.

Ps there isn't usually any bar open at the Estadio Algarve for such games and there is nothing else within a mile. Hope you can survive!

(What if England should be in a World Cup semi final that same night??)

On the other hand there is NO public transport of any kind at the
Algarve Stadium for Wrexham v Louletano, so you must make your own
arrangements to travel from any resort town. Many of the airport transfer minibus companies are able
to take bookings for an out and back. That one Wednesday, 11th July 2018 with a 7pm kick-off

I can offer transport suggestions should you wish.




Thanks mate, the club have made arrangements. Looking forward to it.

Didn't realise they had any internationals at the world cup. I stand corrected.
