PART 2: In part two of the Long Ball Futebol weekender, Albert is joined by friend of the show Luís for a trip to the Capital do Móvel for Paços de Ferreira vs Santa Clara.

PART 3: In the third and final part of the Long Ball Futebol weekender, we end our trip around the north of Portugal in Vila do Conde as Rio Ave take on Gil Vicente. A game that starts as a fairly uneventful mid-table clash ends with incredible drama thanks to a last-minute penalty.
