A group of FC Porto fans went to Olival, in the early hours of this Monday, in order to express their discontent with the disaster that occurred against Benfica. Initially it was thought that the delegation bus would head to Estádio do Dragão, but later, when it was realized that it would go to Olival, these blue and white supporters, mostly members of organized support groups and who were returning from the classic, they made a detour to Vila Nova de Gaia and made themselves heard with the vehemence that is characteristic of them.
The players’ ears burned due to the fans’ revolt, following what had already been highlighted by André Villas-Boas in the dressing room. Despite insults being uttered, Vítor Bruno ended up being one of the main targets, to which Record This tight situation at Olival did not result in violent acts, contrary to what happened at other times, namely with the high-risk attack on Dutch coach Co Adriaanse.
Also unhappy with what happened at Luz, Vítor Bruno decided to cancel the usual days off and the players who do not travel to the national teams will continue training. At the last stop, for example, the coach gave two days off.

Although Vítor Bruno, according to what our newspaper found, chose not to speak to the group, leaving the autopsy of the defeat against Benfica for another time, the players were informed that instead of the expected days off, after all, training continues without interruption. . In this way, the non-internationals will have to continue working hard to redeem themselves from the situation that left FC Porto 6 points behind Sporting in the championship and at risk of falling into an unexpected crisis, given Villas-Boas’ strong commitment to conquest of the title, in his first season as president, and which until now has not been matched.
