On the same day that the under-15 team triumphed at the Abrantes International Tournament, FC Porto’s under-17s lifted the Geneva Cup trophy, a competition featuring clubs from seven European countries, in Switzerland.

In the group stage, the side coached by Manuel Prata beat Meyrin FC 3-1, with goals from Abdu Cassamá, Tiago Portugal and Rodrigo Seca. This was followed by a goalless draw against KRC Genk and a 2-0 win over Inter Milan, thanks to an own goal and a strike from João Lourenço.

In the semi-finals, played on Sunday morning, the Dragons defeated Juventus 2-1, with Tiago Portugal opening the scoring and an own goal sealing the victory, thus securing their place in the final.

KRC Genk once again stood in the way of the Porto side in the decisive match. This time, however, FC Porto came out on top, winning 1-0 thanks to a lone goal from Abdu Cassamá, who was named the tournament’s Best Player.

Next Sunday, 30 August, FC Porto host Vitória SC in a match from the fourth round of the Northern Section of the National Under-17 Championship (11:00 am, Porto Canal).
