Frances Tiafoe made evening session on happy day for USA

Público1 September 2026 at 23:01

Frances Tiafoe achieved an important victory for American tennis at the US Open, delivering a memorable performance that celebrated Independence Day in the United States. The American player showed determination and technical quality to overcome his opponent.

Nuno Borges failed to advance in the tournament after a insufficient performance. The Portuguese tennis player found no arguments to overcome his opponent and saw his US Open campaign end earlier than he would have liked.

Jaime Faria is another Portuguese in action at the US Open. The young Portuguese player will have to face Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, one of the big favorites for the title, in a match scheduled for the late hours, which represents an enormous challenge for the Portuguese player.

The article takes stock of the results of American and Portuguese players at the Grand Slam in New York, highlighting both the successes and the early eliminations of the Portuguese tennis players.

At Barradão, Vasco tries to repeat 2009 feat against Vitória to reach Copa do Brasil semifinal; relive it

Vasco seeks its third consecutive Copa do Brasil semifinal by facing Vitória this Wednesday at Barradão, in Salvador. After winning the first leg 1-0 at São Januário, the Cruz-Maltino only needs a draw to advance, while a one-goal loss takes the decision to penalties. Vasco's record at Barradão is unfavorable — only six wins in 29 games against Vitória at the Bahian stadium — but the team tries to draw inspiration from the classification achieved at the same stage in 2009, when it managed to hold the opponent away from home. The teams have faced each other four times in the Copa do Brasil, with Vitória advancing in three of them.
