Boavista v FC Porto futsal to be played behind closed doors | OneFootball

Boavista’s home futsal match against FC Porto, scheduled for 18:00 on Saturday, 26 September, will be played behind closed doors after a ruling by the Federação Portuguesa de Futebol, the club said in a statement.

The tie is part of the third round of Série A in the III Divisão Nacional de Futsal.

Boavista sought a postponement to stage the game under different conditions that would allow fans to attend, but none of its proposals were accepted by FC Porto.

The club also suggested switching the order of fixtures, offering to play the first meeting away from home, which was likewise rejected.

With no alternative agreed, the match will go ahead as scheduled. Boavista expressed regret that supporters cannot be present and underlined the team’s commitment to represent the club with determination and responsibility.
