The measure, according to a source from the Póvoa de Varzim squad told Lusa, is related to a protest over the three months of overdue wages to the work group of the historic emblem of Póvoa de Varzim.
As soon as the match referee whistled the start of the challenge, the Varzim players remained motionless on the pitch, having earned the respect of their opponent, with Lusitânia de Lourosa only passing the ball around without aiming for the Póvoa de Varzim goal. Varzim is going through a serious financial crisis, which has led to difficulties in paying its commitments, namely with the squad. The club has been managed, since January, by an administrative commission, after the resignation of the previous board, led by Edgar Pinho. In this Champion Qualification phase of Liga 3, Varzim occupies the last place, with four points in seven matches played in this phase.
