Jorge Faustino analyzed the performance of João Gonçalves in the match between Estrela da Amadora and Sporting, which ended in a 2-2 draw on the opening matchday of the Liga Betclic. The expert identified two errors that influenced the scoreline and gave a negative rating (two) to the referee from the Porto FA.
One of the moments analyzed took place in the duel between Luis Suárez and Doué in the 67th minute, after the Sporting forward reacted to an action by the Estrela player. For Jorge Faustino, the yellow card shown to the Colombian was correct, but the initial infringement should also have been punished: “Suárez reacted to the pull he suffered by pushing Doué. Yellow card. However, the first foul (tactical) should also have been sanctioned, namely Doué pulling Suárez, with a direct free-kick and a second yellow card,” as reported by the newspaper 'Record'
The second situation pointed out came in the second half, in a move that ended up leading to one of the goals in the match. At issue was the duel between Antonetti and Eduardo Quaresma, with Faustino considering that the Estrela player committed a foul.
J. Faustino: "Goal wrongly allowed”
Antonetti pulled Eduardo Quaresma by the shoulder area, hindering his run to the ball. He thus won possession, from which the goal resulted. Foul not sanctioned. Goal wrongly allowed.”
