Eduardo Garcia, son of Eduardo Barroso, did not hold back in his criticism of the refereeing after one of the incidents that marked Famalicão - Sporting. The Sporting fan was particularly outraged by a decision made during the match and took to social media to share his opinion.

“This is the usual farce. It’s impossible not to call this, with or without VAR. Gil Dias not being sent off is surreal. (…) Of course they took Gil Dias off lol what a joke (…) Let’s remember that Gil Dias’s yellow card was for the foul. Zero for the rest,” he wrote on social media.

His remarks focused mainly on the situation involving Gil Dias, whose staying on the pitch was also heavily questioned. For Eduardo Garcia, the player should have been sent off, and the refereeing team’s decision was unjustifiable, even taking VAR into account.

Eduardo Barroso’s son also went on to question the yellow card shown to the Minho winger, making it clear that, in his view, the booking only punished the foul committed and not other aspects of the incident involving Flávio Gonçalves, namely the grab to the neck.

The Lions will be back in action next Saturday, September 19, against Arouca. The match, counting for the seventh round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the side coached by Vasco Seabra, will be played at 8:30 p.m. at the José Alvalade Stadium.
