In Porto! Fans cause chaos outside Benfica’s hotel (Video) | OneFootball

Porto fans set off fireworks near the hotel where the Benfica team stayed, in the north of the country. The Eagles are playing, this Sunday, the big classic of Portuguese football, against their blue and white rivals, and even the Eagles' hotel unit was not spared from attempts to destabilize the Club of Light - a former Porto player also left provocations for Benfica.

The situation escalated at 3:30 in the morning, from Saturday to Sunday, 4th to 5th of October, exactly the night before the Porto - Benfica, which counts for the eighth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. About an hour later, the events repeated themselves.

In addition to the fireworks that were launched near the hotel where Benfica was staying, which caused auditory discomfort to the red delegation, the national press explains that an effort was also made for the artifacts to reach the highest possible altitude, so that the flashes of light would also hinder the rest of the red team.

According to the newspaper Record, the whole situation was quite audible inside the hotel unit where Benfica was installed. Moreover, the noise was so disturbing that even some people living near the Eagles' hotel complained about what happened.

The national press also advances that, naturally, the rest of the Benfica players would have been interrupted during the night, due to the Porto fans. Remember that the situation occurred on the eve of the classic where the red team, under the charge of José Mourinho, visits the dragon stadium.
