FC Porto hit back at Sporting’s statement: “Lies and conspiracy theories” | OneFootball

FC Porto released a statement this Tuesday in response to the announcement from Sporting CP, which declared its intention to file a disciplinary complaint with the FPF Disciplinary Council regarding yesterday's classic match (1-1). The dragons accuse the lions of crafting "an extensive list of allegations about 'incidents' and the context of the event, based on distorted facts, falsehoods, and conspiracy theories, and an evident inferiority complex."

The blue and white club states that it "fulfilled all the regulatory requirements and procedures proposed by the League, collaborating, as always, with the competent authorities," adding that it is "perfectly comfortable with any participation or investigation by the Disciplinary Council," to which it will provide the necessary clarifications.

In the statement, FC Porto also responds incisively: "At FC Porto, we understand that greatness and history can be unsettling. Not everyone handles well a track record that isn't written in statements nor an identity that isn't built under the guise of false moral superiority and convenient hypocrisy, often repeated until they seem true."

Finally, the club assures that it "will continue to defend sporting truth with the calmness of those who do not need to shout to exist, and with the firmness of those who do not confuse statements with reality."
