Manchester City has criticized the Portuguese club Porto for its “misjudged” and “directed” complaint at England players after Tuesday’s 0-0 draw in the Champions League.
The result allowed both groups to qualify for the elimination phase of the European elite club competition, but Porto were happy with their opponents.
“The coach and players are even grateful for the possibility they have had again in arbitration,” Porto said in a newsletter on their website.
“After the adjustment scandals in England, this time a penalty missed for Ederson’s more than apparent lack of Otavio. “
Porto also criticized City players Bernardo Silva and Fernandinho, referring to the sanction of a Portuguese Silva match last year in a Twitter message about fellow French team Benjamin Mendy, whom he considered racist. Fernandinho has been accused of missing school.
“This is the first time Porto has reacted badly in such circumstances,” said a city spokesman.
“This time, it is the ill-judged and directed complaint of some of our individual players and even our coach, which we reject altogether.
“In 2012, last season we found the club’s denial of transparent racist behavior through its followers so they were investigated and fined. In this context, this new explosion is almost as unexpected as it is disappointing. “
City won Group C’s first match against Porto 3-1 at Etihad Stadium. He leads the standings before the last round of matches with thirteen issues and Porto is at a time of 10.
