Not sure what has gone on here at the end, but the ref has appeared to have shown 4 reds I think after the whistle.
I'm guessing all 21 remaining players (1 off in the game) and every man possible on the bench involved in a punch up.
Not sure if there is a video about but it was live on BT Sport....
Right at the end, a sporting player kicked his own player in the head and ball went for a corner. The player was off the pitch when he went down.
Think it was either the coach or manager came round off the pitch to the side of the goal and the referee sent him off. With his back turned, the injured player, with physio, came on to the pitch to receive treatment and slow game down more. This is last minute of the match.
Remember this is a "head" injury.
He can leave the field and be treated. And clearly having moved on to pitch is in a position where he is safe to be moved and ordered back off. Ref tries and tries but no movement. Porto players kick off about that too.
Corner comes in, and it appears a high foot cleared the ball off the head of the Porto player who's gone, and stayed, down inside the goal. Nothing given.
Think this may have led to the eruption at the end. But otherwise I don't have a clue.
If you can find a video.... Enjoy.
