This Wednesday, Vitoria de Guimarães beat Croatian side Hajduk 1-0 in the second leg of the third qualifying round of the Europa League Football League, but the result was not enough to advance in the tournament.
Playing at home, Vitória de Guimarães had to recover from a 3-1 first leg loss to qualify for the play-offs, but they only managed to score one goal thanks to Brazilian striker Anderson in just five minutes of the match. in which his number was reduced to 10 due to the elimination of Thiago Silva at 77 years old.
On Thursday it was Gil Vicente’s turn to try to qualify for the next leg of UEFA’s third edition, which will host Riga in Barcelos, after a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Latvia.
The end of the game was marked by brief moments of tension on the pitch between players from both teams and the officiating team.
For 90 minutes, the players of both teams staged “pranks”, like the one that happened during the break between Croatian striker Marko Livaya and Victorian team goalkeeper Bruno Varela.
In the second half, some Hajduk fans threw torches into the “safe zone” that restricted them, and a group of Vitoria fans on the lower east bench made it difficult for Marko Livaj and Jani Atanasov, Hajduk players, to throw a corner with several bottles of water and three chairs onto the lawn, already in discounts.
As soon as the final whistle blew, the players of both sides were delighted with the gesture of Marco Livaj, which caused a turmoil that spread for tens of meters across the field.
The teams split up to greet the fans, but on the way back to the dressing rooms, passing through the bench, a member of Hajduk’s “headquarters” made an obscene gesture towards the west bench, which led to even more disrespect between the athletes and to the throwing of about two dozen chairs by spectators, lovers in Minho, before going to the resorts.
