Sporting sanctioned after away match and the reason has people talking | OneFootball

Sporting was fined due to incidents recorded in last Sunday’s match against Alverca. The decision appears in the latest disciplinary report released by the Disciplinary Board of the Portuguese Football Federation.

At issue was the use of pyrotechnics by Sporting supporters during the match played in the Ribatejo area. The situation coincided with the celebrations of Juventude Leonina’s 50th anniversary. The amount imposed on the Alvalade club totals €9,560. The home team was also sanctioned, with a fine of €2,550 for the same reason.

In the same disciplinary report, there was also a note regarding Luis Suárez. The player will have to pay a €102 fine following the yellow card shown by João Pinheiro, a situation that created considerable controversy.

It is worth remembering that after the clash with Alverca, Rui Borges responded to José Mourinho about the possibility of the Lions becoming European champions. “Am I bothered? No, far from it. It’s the coach’s honest opinion, I respect it... I’m Portuguese, above all. I want the Portuguese to win,” he said at the time.

The green-and-whites return to the pitch on April 3, Friday, against Santa Clara. The match, for Matchday 28 of Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team coached by Petit, will be played at Estádio José Alvalade at 8:30 p.m.
