Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo4 September 2026 at 20:26

Eduardo Vítor Rodrigues, former mayor of the Municipality of Vila Nova de Gaia, was acquitted of the crimes of malpractice and embezzlement he was accused of in connection with a process related to FC Porto.

The politician faced charges related to his term as mayor of Vila Nova de Gaia, the municipality that hosts the Estádio do Dragão, home of FC Porto.

The court decided to acquit Eduardo Vítor Rodrigues, as the Public Prosecutor's Office failed to prove the occurrence of the crimes the former mayor was suspected of.

This decision marks the conclusion of a process that had been ongoing for several years and involved alleged irregularities in the management of municipal affairs related to the Porto football club.

Pauline Hanson, leader of the Australian far right and founder of the One Nation party, threatens to break the bipartisanship that has prevailed in Australian democracy. At 73 years old and an admirer of Donald Trump, Hanson is preparing for a major electoral leap in the federal elections scheduled for 2028, with polls giving her 30% voting intention, above the Labor Party (in government) and the Coalition (liberals and conservatives), the main traditional forces. It is the first time that a third party surpasses traditional Australian parties in opinion polls.

Brazilians will choose a president, governors, senators, and federal deputies in a context where electoral programs compete for (and lose) the population's attention in the face of the erosion of ethical and moral values in public institutions.
