Playing soccer on the beach (futebol de areia) is a specific cultural staple. The 'Três Grandes' (Benfica, Sporting, Porto) dominate the culture. Playing soccer is a way for youth to emulate their heroes like Cristiano Ronaldo. Soccer is a major unifying force and the most popular sport, often played in open fields with handmade balls.
