FC Porto want two-match ban for Suárez | OneFootball

FC Porto has filed a disciplinary complaint against Luis Suárez, Sporting’s forward, following the incidents during the Portuguese Cup classic at Alvalade. The club requested a summary—immediate—trial, but the Disciplinary Council (CD) of the FPF rejected this route and instead decided to open a disciplinary process.

The CD justified the refusal by stating that the complaint, although based on television footage, does not stem from official reports by the refereeing team or the match delegates.

In their submission, the blue and white club did not limit themselves to reporting the alleged “theft” gesture made by the Colombian player. The complaint also includes two physical interactions with defender Bednarek: according to FC Porto, Suárez allegedly punched the center-back in the torso and, in another incident, deliberately collided with him, projecting him towards goalkeeper Diogo Costa, in situations where there was no possibility of contesting the ball.

Based on these facts and under the Disciplinary Regulations, FC Porto argues that the Sporting forward should be sanctioned with at least a two-match suspension.
