António Salvador appeals against "unjust and illegal" suspension

António Salvador, president of Sporting de Braga, plans to appeal a 23-day suspension imposed by the Portuguese Football Federation's Disciplinary Council. He claims the suspension is unjust and illegal, stemming from comments made about referee Gustavo Correia after a match against Gil Vicente. Salvador argues that the reports against him are biased and reflect discomfort with Braga's critical stance on refereeing. He also highlights inconsistencies in officiating decisions affecting his team. In addition to the suspension, he faces a fine of €4,970. Braga lost the match 2-1, raising concerns over missed penalties.
