Paysandu Sport Club

Founded on February 2, 1914, Paysandu Sport Club established itself as a cornerstone of football in northern Brazil. The club calls Belém, Pará home and plays its matches at the Estádio da Curuzú, a venue that has witnessed over a century of local rivalry and triumph.

The team currently competes in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B under the guidance of head coach João Brigatti. Fans fill the stadium with intense support, often chanting slogans like "AINDA DÁ TEMPO, FIEL!!!!" to show their enduring loyalty to the squad.

Paysandu holds the distinction of winning the Copa Verde six times as of May 2026, reinforcing its status as a dominant force in regional competitions. This success complements their consistent presence in national second-tier leagues and their long-standing participation in state championships. [edit]

The club was founded in 1914 by a group of young men who wanted to create a sporting identity for the region. Over the decades, it grew from a local amateur side into a professional entity capable of challenging teams across the country. The rivalry with Remo remains a defining element of the city's football culture.

In recent years, the team has focused on rebuilding its squad while maintaining its competitive edge in the Copa Verde. Matches against Vasco da Gama in March 2026 highlighted both the challenges and opportunities facing the club in the modern era. [edit]
