António Salvador denounces the lack of respect from the PSP (Public Security Police) and promises to fight until the END.

The tension between the management of SC Braga and the Public Security Police (PSP) reached a critical point after the thrilling derby on Saturday, where Braga triumphed over V. Guimarães with a score of 3-2. António Salvador, the president of the Braga club, did not hesitate to express his outrage during the press conference, accusing the PSP of disrespect and censorship, promising to fight until the last consequences.

“Today, we won and we won well, but I am not happy. Today, our club, our members, and our supporters were disrespected. Our city of Braga was disrespected. We were censored in our desire to affirm the love and pride for the city,” Salvador stated, visibly frustrated. The situation arose when the PSP prevented the display of a giant screen intended to promote encouragement for the club and the city, a gesture that Salvador considers essential for the unity and pride of the community.

The Braga president emphasized the dedication of the professionals and volunteers who had worked for weeks to prepare this initiative. “I cannot allow such a positive message, of love and pride for our city, to be censored. As president, I will go to the last instances. I will do whatever it takes to defend the love for our city, the love for our club, so that our supporters are respected, which is what did not happen here,” Salvador expressed, making it clear that his fight will not end without recognition of what he considers an attack on the sporting spirit and the identity of the city.

The controversy generated by Salvador’s statements is not just a reflection of an isolated incident, but rather a symptom of a tense relationship between institutions that should work together for the good of the community. The frustration of the Braga leader resonates with many supporters who feel equally disrespected, raising questions about freedom of expression and censorship in sports.

Braga, with a rich history and a passionate fan base, now finds itself at the center of a debate that promises to stir things up in the coming days. The response from the PSP and possible developments from this situation will certainly be under the scrutiny of the press and football enthusiasts.
