The highly anticipated derby match of the 30th round of the Portuguese championship between Sporting and Benfica will start later than planned.
Reports confirm that the game at Alvalade Stadium has been rescheduled to 18:15 local time. This change comes after the Benfica team bus faced significant delays due to a traffic accident in Lisbon, which caused major congestion on the route to the stadium.
Fortunately, all players and staff from Benfica arrived safely at the stadium. Organizers opted for a slight delay to ensure both teams had enough time to prepare for this crucial derby.
