Lino Godinho and Callum Walsh, respectively assistant coach and fitness coach of FC Porto, were suspended for one match following their expulsions during the derby against Sporting at Alvalade.
Lino Godinho was sent off in the 29th minute for, according to the referee’s report, insulting an opposing player and using offensive gestures and/or language, having said: “What do you want, f***!” At the end of the match, Francesco Farioli’s assistant, who was also fined 1,150 euros, went to the referees’ dressing room to apologize for what had happened.
Callum Walsh was sent off after the final whistle for, according to the report, provoking a confrontation and pushing an opposing player; in addition to the suspension for the next match, he was fined 1,530 euros.
Luís Neto, Rui Borges’ assistant at Sporting, was fined on two occasions: 380 euros for remaining improperly in the technical area and 640 euros for protesting to the fourth official during a play, claiming: “Can’t you see it was him who took it, f***?”
The match, which FC Porto won 2-1, resulted in around 24,000 euros in fines for the clubs (close to 30,000 euros if technical staff and players are included) and also led to the opening of a disciplinary process against Sporting.
