“As is well known, SC Braga was deprived of several players due to positive tests against Covid-19. In addition: against Boavista and Sporting (both away from home), our defense was totally decimated by the virus, being out of options Bruno Viana, Tormena and David Carmo, which was also joined by André Castro.

As a club that complies with the rules, SC Braga accepted the impact of the pandemic, immediately put the players in isolation for the 10 days required by the DGS protocol for football, did not contest the positive results and, after this period, he only reinstated them. in training at the time they tested negative for Covid-19, some of the cases well after the 10 days required by law.

The rules are explicit and, we believe, have been written with the obligation that ALL clubs abide by them. What is not our surprise when yesterday, at the end of the afternoon, we were faced with two “false positives” by Sporting, alleging an alleged error in the analysis laboratory (meanwhile denied to the newspaper O JOGO by the clinical director of UNILABS , Maia Gonçalves).

SC Braga is deeply outraged by Sporting’s intention to have exceptional treatment in this pandemic context, not only in view of the protocol in force at the level of the professional football league, but also of society in general. We will pay special attention to the sovereign decision of the local health authorities, trusting that scrupulous compliance with current regulations will be maintained.

It should be noted that non-compliance with the protocol (accepted by all clubs at the time of resumption) will undoubtedly cause an anarchic, chaotic and disruptive scenario in Portuguese football, with the serious risk of injuring all professional competitions. death to the point of not being completed.

SC Braga will continue to scrupulously comply with the rules defined by the DGS protocol, but requires that all other clubs do so equally and without exception, even if the immediate intervention of the League, the FPF or the Government is necessary. .. “
