Concussion protocols activated during Vitória de Guimarães and FC Porto match

The concussion protocol was activated twice during the match between Vitória de Guimarães and FC Porto this Sunday.

In the second half, FC Porto defender Jan Bednarek was substituted for Nehuén Pérez after being struck in the face by the ball, which caused vision difficulties. The use of the purple card, signaling the concussion protocol, granted both teams an additional substitution.

Later, near the 90th minute, a head collision between Martim Fernandes and Borevkovic led Vitória de Guimarães to also activate the protocol. This resulted in both teams being permitted a total of seven substitutions during the match.
