The president of the Portuguese Professional Football League (LPFP), Reinaldo Teixeira, today rejected any "partial attitude" or "special treatment" in favor of Sporting regarding the rescheduling of the match with Tondela, for the 26th round of the Primeira Liga.

"If you ask me when [the game] is, I don't know. It will be addressed during the Meeting of the Game Scheduling Committee [of the League]. What I can say is that, with full knowledge or premeditated knowledge, never expect from this League any permissive or permeable attitude of partiality. The only special treatment that exists in the League is for all sports societies, according to the regulations and what is decided in the Game Scheduling Committees," he stated, in response to FC Porto's criticism of an alleged favoritism towards Sporting in the postponement of the match.
