Sporting alert: Cláudio Pereira Clássico report and Suárez updates | OneFootball

The gesture made by Luis Suárez at the end of the first half of the classic match between Sporting and Porto, played this Tuesday at Alvalade and corresponding to the first leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals, was reportedly not mentioned in the referee Cláudio Pereira’s report, according to the newspaper A Bola.

The incident occurred after a play involving Alberto Costa and Geny Catamo, at a moment when Sporting players were demanding a second yellow card for the blue and white player. Following the play, Suárez made a gesture associated with “theft” towards one of the cameras, a situation that was captured by the television broadcast.

The gesture sparked criticism from Porto, especially from president André Villas-Boas, who reacted at the end of the match and announced his intention to file a complaint with the Disciplinary Council of the Portuguese Football Federation.

Since the incident is not included in the official reports from the refereeing team, any possible sanction can only arise as a result of this formal complaint by the Dragons. If the complaint is accepted by the Disciplinary Council, an inquiry or disciplinary process may be opened, which will follow the usual procedures and include hearings of the parties involved.
