FC Porto supporters bought tickets for the whole game, but Pavlidis sent many of them away from 70. Tomorrow is Monday, work day, were already 10 da noite e 3 de pavlidis…

An “ex” like none
Now yes, the “Ex” law. Otamendi marked the former team and sentenced the final result in 1-4. Precisely, The same dose of the first lap. Last year, the Argentine defense was in the final stretch of the game. This year, it made a better figure.
It is not very common for a former FC Porto player to be “hated” at the Dragon Stadium. But Otamendi is one “ex” like no more.

With this result, the Benfica provisionally moves to leadership. In turn, the FC Porto remains, also to the condition, in 3.º. This Monday, there is Sporting – SC Braga and accounts can change.
