A portagayola is when a matador decides to meet the bull in a kneeling position as soon as it let out of the corrals and into the ring. It is usually done to get the crowd excited if the crowd hasn't had much to cheer about that day.
Or a matador might perform the move if he feels the need to prove his bravery to the crowd or the judge.
It is an exciting yet risky move since the bull can do any number of things once the he enters the ring and at times things don't always go the way the matador has planned.
