CNID – Association of Sports Journalists, accused on Tuesday of attempting to attack journalists in front of the General Assembly (AG) of FC Porto.
“Some journalists, and especially the reporting group from CMTVwere verbally attacked, while fans hit a car and asked journalists to leave the public road,” the CNID said in a statement.
The Dragons’ match did not end due to clashes between partners at the Dragao Arena. The meeting, which began Monday, was not scheduled at that location, but the large turnout prompted the last-minute change.
The association condemns “coercive attempts by some members of FC Porto” and calls for the intervention of the dragons as well as the authorities.
“The CNID calls on FC Porto to include, in the measures announced at the Dragao Arena, a small investigation (nothing more is required) to identify and help bring to justice people who do not have an interest in the sport.”
Even before the meeting began, former Porto coach Andre Villas-Boas said that there were no conditions for it to take place and asked for it to be suspended. After At the beginning of the match, the teammate of the blue and white reacted to the clashes and spoke about “one of the darkest days in the history of Porto.”
Several images published showed clashes between fans and an attack on a fan after he criticized Porto officials. Actor Pedro Texeira, who also attended the attorney general’s meeting, said he felt “fear and shame” before the beating scenes.
FC Porto AG has a new date set for November 20th.
