Sunday's 2-2 draw between Benfica and Porto was marred by a flare-up after Leandro Barreiro scored, with José Mourinho and Lucho González both dismissed.

As reported by Glorioso 1904, the Liga Portugal website confirms Porto executive Henrique Monteiro, the club's executive manager and match delegate, was also sent off by referee João Pinheiro around the 90-minute mark.

The incident followed a dispute between Mourinho and Lucho moments after Barreiro's goal. After his red card, Mourinho continued to remonstrate with João Pinheiro and, heading to the tunnel, made a small gesture apparently towards the Porto dugout led by Francesco Farioli.

In his press conference, Mourinho said Lucho González repeatedly called him a traitor in the tunnel and he asked what that accusation referred to, adding he had given everything during his time at Porto.

Benfica visit Arouca on Saturday 14 March in the 26th round of Liga Portugal Betclic, with kick-off at 20:30 against Vasco Seabra's side.
