Handball federation reacts, refers FC Porto-Sporting to panel | OneFootball

The Portuguese Handball Federation announced, in a statement, that it has filed a report with the body’s Disciplinary Council to determine what happened in Saturday’s match between FC Porto and Sporting, corresponding to the first round of the final stage of the national championship, which ended with a 33-30 win for the Lions.

“Given the incidents recorded in today’s game between FC Porto and Sporting CP, played at the Dragão Arena, in the Final Stage of the Placard Andebol 1 Championship, the Federation’s Board informs that it has submitted a report to the Disciplinary Council, with a view to determining any possible disciplinary responsibilities and for the effects provided for under the regulations,” reads the statement from the body governing handball in Portugal.

It should be recalled that the match was marked by complaints from the green-and-whites over a strong odor, described by the Sporting delegation as “sleep-inducing” in the dressing room, a situation that led to the absence of coach Ricardo Costa and pivot Moga, both treated at the scene and later taken to hospital. At the end of the match, Mário Santos, Porto’s director, denied that the Sporting coach and player had received hospital treatment and accused Martim Costa of assaulting a Porto supporter.
