Porto delegation caught up in chaos after defeat to Sporting | OneFootball

The first leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals between Sporting and Porto, which ended with a 1-0 victory for the lions, was marked by incidents outside the José Alvalade Stadium when the blue and white delegation was about to leave the venue.

According to a source from the dragons, some Sporting fans approached the Porto bus and, similar to what had already happened near the box during the game, provoked club members as the bus was preparing to depart.

Consequently, the confusion escalated when one of the fans in question attempted to assault a member of the blue and white team's delegation, without the security present being able to stop him, necessitating police intervention.

It should be noted that with the victory against Porto – the 30th in 40 matches this season –, Rui Borges' team holds the advantage in the tie, but they still have to play the second leg at the Estádio do Dragão. The match is scheduled for April 22.

The green and white team will be back on the field next Saturday, March 7, against Braga. The match, part of the 25th round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Carlos Vicens, will be played at the Estádio Municipal de Braga at 18:00.
