FC Porto was fined 6,174 euros following several incidents recorded during the match against Estoril, played last Sunday at the António Coimbra da Mota Stadium.

The largest portion, amounting to 3,190 euros, relates to the “use of explosive or pyrotechnic devices” by its supporters. The second, 1,836 euros, is linked to the “two-minute delay in the start of the second half due to both teams arriving late on the pitch without any apparently justified reason.”

In addition, FC Porto’s SAD will have to pay 1,148 euros for insults directed at Benfica, Frederico Varandas, Sporting’s president, and Luís Godinho, the referee of the match in Estoril, according to the disciplinary report of the Portuguese Football Federation’s Disciplinary Board:

“a) In the 41st minute of the first half, they chanted in unison, clearly, audibly and perceptibly, the following phrase: ‘SLB, SLB, sons of a b… SLB’”

“b) In the 45+5’ minute of the second half, they chanted in unison, clearly, audibly and perceptibly, the following phrase: ‘Varandas, listen, you son of a b…’”

“c) After the end of the match, when the refereeing team was heading to the dressing rooms, they chanted in unison, clearly, audibly and perceptibly, the following phrase: ‘Godinho, listen, you son of a b…’”

The disciplinary report of the Disciplinary Board also mentions an incident in the FC Porto-Famalicão match that is still awaiting clarification.
