The Disciplinary Board of the Portuguese Football Federation has decided to sanction Morten Hjulmand and Sporting following the incidents recorded in the match against Vitória de Guimarães, played on December 23, 2025.

The Danish midfielder - who has several interested clubs - was fined €612, while Sporting’s SAD will have to pay €1,020.

On an individual level, Nélson Oliveira, a forward for the Guimarães side, received a heavier punishment, being suspended for one match. The decisions now announced bring the disciplinary chapter related to this league match to a close.
