Sporting hit with hefty fine after win over Moreirense 💸 | OneFootball

Sporting defeated Moreirense, 3-0, in the sixth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. Despite the good result, Frederico Varandas will have to pay 16,731 euros in fines, according to the penalty report for the round in question, released by the Disciplinary Council (CD) of the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF).

A large part of the amount in question - 8,290 euros - stems from the behavior of Sporting fans. According to the document, several pyrotechnic devices were ignited, including flares, flashlights, firecrackers, and smoke pots, which are prohibited by the competition's regulations.

6,375 euros are due to the entry of the aforementioned pyrotechnic devices into the stadium, as well as the display of two banners in the South Curve exceeding the permitted size. Members of Juventude Leonina involved in the attack on Alcochete returned to Alvalade after serving their sentence, with two inscriptions raised in sector A14 - 'We are back' and 'Juve'.

Of the remaining amount, 944 euros were for insulting chants directed at André Ferreira, Moreirense's goalkeeper, and 1,224 euros for a three-minute delay at the start of the second half of the match, which would only be resolved in the last quarter of an hour.

Sporting will return to the field next Saturday, September 27, against Estoril, in a match for the seventh round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The match against the team led by Ian Cathro will be played at 8:30 PM, at the Estádio Antónia Coimbra da Mota.
