The League’s disciplinary report, released this Thursday, indicates that Lino Godinho, assistant to Francesco Farioli, who was sent off during last Saturday’s classic at Alvalade, “apologized for his behavior to the refereeing team.”
Sent off for “offensive, insulting, or abusive gestures and language” directed at a Sporting player, the FC Porto staff member went to the referees’ dressing room after the final whistle and expressed regret for what he had said on the pitch: “What do you want, you son of a b****?”
Despite this, Lino Godinho was sanctioned with a one-match suspension and a fine of 1,150 euros, penalties imposed by the Disciplinary Board of the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF).
In addition to the assistant coach, the physical trainer of the blue and white team, Englishman Callum Walsh, also received a one-match suspension and a fine of 1,530 euros for having provoked a “conflict by pushing an opposing player” after the end of the match.
