Portuguese swimmer Camila Rebelo achieved eighth place in the final of the 100-meter backstroke, which took place this Saturday at the European Championships in Paris. This participation marked a significant moment in her career, although she did not manage to improve her national record during the event.

Ribeiro, a teammate of Rebelo, also stood out by qualifying for the final of the 50-meter freestyle. The aquatic sports competition is taking place in the French capital and attracts athletes from various countries.

According to reports, the final of the 100-meter backstroke featured participants from several nations, but Rebelo could not distinguish herself compared to her competitors. Her performance in this event will certainly be analyzed by the coaching team in light of future competitions.

The 2026 European Aquatics Championships are being a stage for prominent names in swimming, and with his inclusion in the final, Diogo Ribeiro may provide more opportunities for Portuguese swimming, while Camila Rebelo continues to work on improving her times.
