Sporting v Vitória de Guimarães brings hefty fine; Lions to pay over... | OneFootball

Following the home match against Vitória de Guimarães at the José Alvalade Stadium last Monday, in a game that marked the 32nd round of the national championship, Sporting were ordered to pay a fine of €7,265.

According to the list of sanctions released this Thursday by the Disciplinary Board (CD) of the Portuguese Football Federation, the penalty imposed on the Lions stems from the fans’ behaviour at the José Alvalade Stadium and from the team’s delayed return from the dressing room after half-time, as the report states that “no justification” was given by either team.

According to the report, €2,040 is due to the four-minute delay after half-time; €765 relates to insults aimed at Vitória de Guimarães; and €1,910 results from the use of pyrotechnic devices. Lastly, the amount of €2,550 stems from the use of pyrotechnics and a banner with the word “Ultras”, displayed in sector A14 of Alvalade’s South Stand.

As for the match itself, the Lions hosted and beat the Guimarães side 5-1. Goals from Gonçalo Inácio, Daniel Bragança, Maxi Araújo, Luis Suárez and Luís Guilherme sealed the Green and Whites’ return to winning ways.
