The red card shown to Nogueira generated criticism and the vice president of Benfica’s SAD explained the decision to the rival coach.
The game between Benfica and Gil Vicente, in Barcelos, heated up with some tough tackles from side to side, but Nogueira’s expulsion at the end of the first half upset the hosts’ bench.
The defender’s two jumps with Darwin, using both arms to condition the striker, earned him two yellow cards. The gilistas questioned the refereeing team’s judgment regarding Gilberto, who hit Léautey in the face with an elbow on a midfield shot.
Gil’s technical team jumped like crazy and Ricardo Soares vehemently protested, asking the 4th referee for explanations. At half-time, the coach immediately went to the access tunnel, but after hearing the opinions of the Benfica coaches, he returned to the pitch to discuss with them. Rui Costa, vice president of Benfica, reassured Soares by explaining, in an assertive tone, what he considered a correct expulsion.
