Gonçalo Inácio sent off in Gil Vicente v Sporting, outrage erupts | OneFootball

Sporting drew with Gil Vicente (1-1) in a match from the 17th round of Liga Portugal Betclic, a game marked by several controversial refereeing decisions. Tito Arantes Fontes, former president of Grupo Stromp, says he was stunned by the red card given to Gonçalo Inácio.

"While it was 11 against 11, it was a great game. In the second half, the field started to tilt, until Gustavo Correia sent off Gonçalo Inácio. I can't understand the sending off, it's surreal. We will fight until the end," he wrote to the newspaper 'Record'. Meanwhile, Sousa Cintra did not hide his disappointment over the two points lost.

"I'm sad, we didn't win. We had several chances to kill the game, but we still believe in the title. My faith is that we will be champions and Gil also played well. Inácio's sending off? It's the rule." Ivaylo Iordanov also still believes in winning the title.

"Sporting took a wrong step in the title race, but there's still a lot of the league left. I always believe, until the last matchday. They had to win the game, but Gil Vicente also has good players", said the former Bulgarian footballer of the green and white club.

It should be remembered that Jorge Faustino analyzed the incidents of the match and, in addition to disagreeing with the sending off of the Lions' central defender, he also said that the equalizer scored by the Minho side was irregular due to a foul on Alisson Santos. Thus, he even gave a negative rating (two) to Gustavo Correia's performance (Find out more HERE).
