Porto fans divided over Francisco Moura on social media | OneFootball

Francisco Moura had a performance to forget at the Dragão. Not included in the starting eleven by Francesco Farioli for the classic match against Sporting, the FC Porto left-back came on in the 84th minute and, during injury time, committed a foul that led to a penalty and the equalizer – Luis Suárez missed the conversion (Diogo Costa saved it), but redeemed himself on the rebound.

After making the mistake, the player was visibly upset and was consoled by the blue and white technical staff. However, some fans showed little understanding on social media, criticizing and attacking Francisco Moura in the defender's old posts after the decisive play.

"Want to make us happy? Please leave this club," "You ballerina of a c...," "More is demanded, bro, this is not just about getting paid at the end of the month! This is not Famalicão, wake up... you've been here long enough to know what our club represents. Many dream of being in your place, so start valuing it," were some of the reactions.

"Childishness! It's not the first or second time!" wrote another user, referring to the responsibilities in the first goal against Casa Pia. "Useless player, big m...," "Weak," "Out," "You could have used your body to intercept the ball, but you had to open your arm... For God's sake," were other comments.

There were also messages defending the footballer. "Only someone who doesn't like sports would come here to insult an athlete who must already be feeling down for making a mistake... Is anyone infallible? It's a mistake that shouldn't have been made in a game like this and especially not at that stage of the game, it's true... But mistreating someone like this because they made a mistake seems unreasonable... As Porto fans, we must know how to stand by our own when things go wrong, not just when they are heroes!" read one message, along with: "Leave him alone" and "Regardless of the mistake, it's regrettable to come to the guy's page to insult him."
