The moment of confusion that followed Leandro Barreiro's goal in the classic match between Benfica and Porto on Sunday did not only result in the expulsions of José Mourinho and Lucho González from the benches of the eagles and dragons, respectively.

The official record available on the Liga Portugal website indicates, after gathering all the data based on the official reports, that Henrique Monteiro, executive manager of the blue and white emblem and delegate to the games, was also expelled by referee João Pinheiro during that moment of confusion in the 90th minute, marked by the disagreement between Mourinho and the former dragons player.

It is worth remembering that the Benfica coach, even after seeing the red card, continued to protest with referee João Pinheiro and, on his way to the tunnel, still made a "small" gesture, apparently directed at the Porto bench, led by Francesco Farioli.

Later, at the press conference, José Mourinho said that Lucho González called him a traitor several times. "A member of the Porto bench (Lucho González), who was also expelled, called me a traitor 50 times in the tunnel. I would like him to explain to me: traitor of what? I was at Porto, I gave my soul," he revealed.

Remember that the red emblem will be back on the field next Saturday, March 14, against Arouca. The match, part of the 26th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Vasco Seabra, will be played at 8:30 PM, at the opponent's ground.
