Pedro Sousa reveals threats after the derby: “I’m not afraid at all” | OneFootball

The tension that followed the derby between FC Porto and Sporting CP persists and now extends beyond the pitch.

Pedro Sousa stated that he has been the target of threats on social media over the past 48 hours, following comments he made about the draw between the Dragons and the Lions.

“I am not afraid at all,” assured the commentator, emphasizing that the atmosphere on digital platforms has become increasingly toxic.

The commentator also criticized the growing tendency to associate journalistic opinions with club allegiances:

“People think anything goes and that just because we’re here giving our opinions… we have to have a side. They worry about what we say and whether the microphones are blue, red, or green.”

The episode reignites the discussion about the limits of speech on social media and the pressure placed on public figures connected to Portuguese football, particularly after highly tense confrontations.
