Jorge Coroado: blatant negligence missed in Sporting v Alverca | OneFootball

Sporting defeated Alverca, 2-0, in the tenth round of Liga Portugal Betclic. The match took place without major incidents for the refereeing team, led by António Nobre, except for an incident as early as the 10th minute, in which Iván Fresneda ended up being substituted with significant complaints.

António Nobre, incorrectly, let play continue, not whistling for the foul committed against the Sporting defender.

José Leirós is clear and also believes that Nuozzi’s approach was excessive, putting Fresneda’s physical integrity at risk: "Sliding tackle, outside the box, in a negligent and dangerous manner, making contact with the opponent’s foot and leg. A yellow card should have been shown."

With the victory – their 12th in 16 matches this season –, Rui Borges’ men occupy first place, albeit provisionally. Sporting has 25 points from 10 matches played, equaling Porto, who have one game less. Benfica (21) completes the podium.
