History and profile
O Jogo was first published on 22 February 1985 by the Jornal de Notícias company in Porto, and it is seen as appealing mainly to supporters of FC Porto, being publicly criticized by Benfica, suppressing the gap of the two other national sports newspapers, A Bola and Record. O Jogo has also a Lisbon edition.
O Jogo is published in tabloid format. The paper was sold in 1995 to Lusomundo Media subsidiary Jornalinveste, which was later absorbed into Controlinveste in 2005 after Lusomundo Media merged with Olivedesportos, before renaming itself as Global Media Group in 2015.
