Women's team clinch vital win over Clube Arbegaria (1-0) | OneFootball

The FC Porto women's team achieved their second victory in two rounds of the North Series of the Second Division by defeating Clube Albergaria 1-0 today.

At Olival, the team led by Daniel Chaves overcame an opponent that competed in the main national level last season. Joana Ferreira, at 42 minutes, scored the only goal of the match, securing three points for the blue and white team.

There was some confusion after the final whistle. Well beyond the five minutes of compensation, the referee considered the game finished before a corner kick in favor of Clube Albergaria was taken, which led to protests from the visiting team and heated exchanges of words between players and members of the technical teams.

Daniel Chaves, coach of FC Porto, ended up being expelled, as well as a member of Albergaria. In the quick interview area, speaking to Porto Canal, the coach explained what happened. "There was a player from Albergaria, who I know, who was insulting a member of our technical team. I grabbed her hands, she fell to the ground, I don't know why. She must have felt bad. The referee decided this way," reported Daniel Chaves.

In the inaugural round, FC Porto had defeated Tirsense, away, by 4-0. The Portistas are currently leading the standings, despite some teams not having completed all the matches on the schedule.
