Adaptive sport: FC Porto off to a winning start in the BCR League | OneFootball

About a month after being introduced to the fans at Dragão Arena, the wheelchair basketball team returned to their home for sports and defeated APD Paredes 80-10 in the opening round of the BCR League.

In their official debut, Marco Almeida opened the scoring for the team—he was also the top scorer, with 23 points—and the Dragons did not allow any points in the first quarter (17-0). They conceded only one point in the second period, reaching halftime with a 34-point lead (35-1). The blue and white dominance continued in the second half: the third quarter ended with a 19-7 run that extended the lead to 54-8, and the final period, the most productive, was 26-2, finishing the game at 80-10.

In addition to coaching, Pedro Bártolo (17) had the following players: Domingos Djata, Rafael Brito (15), Gustavo Carvalho (4), Marco Almeida (23), Simão Pimenta, Diogo Ferrás (13), Mamadu Djaló, Ronne Van Heijningen, Joana Delgado (6), João Dinis, and Jorge Maciel (2).

On Sunday, November 1, at 2:30 p.m., the Porto team will travel to Odivelas to face APD Lisboa in the second round of the BCR League.
