Gabri Veiga throws bottle at Benfica bench… where nobody was there

Following the “narratives” mentioned by Marco Silva, an illustrative example emerges.

Gabri Veiga experienced a moment of great “danger” at the Estádio do Dragão when he threw a water bottle toward Benfica’s bench. The incident took place deep into stoppage time, at a particularly tense moment.

However, images released later clarify an important detail: the bottle ended up landing in an area where no one was standing. There was a commotion, but there was no human target.

At the moment of the throw, Bednarek and Marco Silva were talking in front of the Reds’ bench without being hit. The FC Porto player’s gesture was reckless, but it had no consequences for any Benfica member.
