Luis Suárez banned for one match over theft gesture v FC Porto

Luís Suárez was handed a one-match suspension due to the “robbery” gesture in the derby between Sporting and FC Porto, played at the beginning of the month and corresponding to the first leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals.

The Uruguayan striker for the Lions was caught by one of the cameras making the gesture with one hand. FC Porto filed a complaint, and the FPF Disciplinary Board imposed a one-match ban on him.

It should be recalled that this was not the only complaint from the Porto side regarding the goalscorer. FC Porto’s SAD also alleged that the Uruguayan player assaulted Bednarek, but in that case the FPF Disciplinary Board decided to dismiss the complaint.
