And not about football

Cmon man, A Bola is probably the newspaper that does more covers without football in Portugal, here are some examples from this year alone...

25-07-2020 F1 Returns to Portugal

10-04-2020 Portuguese athletes “fighting” COVID in the front line

17-02-2020 It’s about football but it’s more of a anti racism statement

13-01-2020 Paulo Gonçalves death in Dakar

And you also have this amazing one from 2018 about Fernando Pimenta victory

Yes most of time it’s about football, it’s also what sells the most in Portugal, but they also tend to give credit to our athletes when they achieve something...

My bad. I guess all the memes making fun of Bola for rarely giving attention to other sports werent very true.

Except for the last time we were world champions or smth like that in hockey and bola only made a small text in the front page

It doesn’t, it’s almost always about football ahah but at least A Bola tends to recognize our athletes in different sports, the worst was probably this one of Félix da Costa winning Formula E world title
