Sporting v Tondela off? Vítor Pinto slams league: "It’s ridiculous…" | OneFootball

As a result of the postponement of the Sporting - Tondela match, which pertains to the 26th round of the championship, Vítor Pinto did not hold back his criticism regarding the decisions made by the Liga Portugal. Also based on the complaints from Porto, the commentator argues that the situation is "ridiculous".

"It is even more ridiculous because it is right in front of everyone's face, there is a regulatory breach. And for them to tell us that the game was never scheduled, or that four weeks haven't passed yet, is to call everyone fools," he began by saying in a comment on CMTV.

"Someone from the League, this time, will have to explain the situation. Because in the Arouca - Porto match, due to the Harvest Fair, Porto was forced to play on Monday, when dates in October had been pointed out that did not clash with any competition. Therefore, the game could have been postponed," he emphasized.

"For example, the League, which imposed Estoril to face Santa Clara in the middle of an international break, which is something shocking and unbelievable, that only went unnoticed because it involved small clubs [...] but fortunately there is a statement from Estoril, which clearly states their position on the matter," he highlighted.

"And now it's like this, the dust is swept under the rug and if Arsenal eliminates Sporting, maybe it won't cause much of a fuss, right? But things cannot work like this in professional football, much less in Portuguese football," concluded Vítor Pinto, agitated.
