Varandas has made his move after Proença’s Sporting ban | OneFootball

Sporting will appeal the decision of the Disciplinary Council (CD) which ordered the closure of sector A17 for one match, in the north stand of the José Alvalade Stadium, due to incidents recorded during the classic against Porto, played on August 30.

According to the newspaper Record, the Alvalade club intends to file an appeal with a request for an injunction with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAD), with the aim of suspending the enforcement of the punishment until the court issues a final decision.

The sanction comes as a result of a complaint filed by Porto, who reported the throwing of lighters onto the pitch during the celebrations of Porto’s goals, one of which struck player Zaidu. For now, the punishment will not have immediate effect, since, according to the regulations, the decision can only be enforced 15 working days after notification, which was received last Thursday, October 30, at Alvalade. Thus, the match against Alverca, scheduled for Friday, will not be affected by the disciplinary measure.

At issue are practices of “simple assaults with an impact on the game for a period equal to or less than 10 minutes”, which resulted not only in the stadium ban but also in a fine of €5,100, “already accounting for the aggravating circumstance of repeat offense.” There is also another conviction for “throwing an object without impact on the game,” with a fine of €10,200.

Next, some of the moments justifying the punishment are detailed, including situations involving Zaidu and William Gomes. It continues: “The throwing of objects did not succeed in hitting any player or other sporting officials, with the objects falling onto the field of play without causing any disturbance to the course of the said match (...) Notwithstanding that such behavior is prohibited by the sports disciplinary legal framework, the defendant (Sporting SAD) did not do everything within its power to prevent them.”
