Just 25 kilometres separate Braga from Guimaraes. They are neighboring cities and, therefore, rivals in sports. Vitória and Braga are the two biggest teams in the Minho region, and their rivalry is fierce.
Every time they face each other, security is put on high alert. Because a brainless person can always appear to spoil the party.
That almost happened on Friday, when Braga visited Vitória Guimaraes in the eighth Liga Portuguesa match of the season.
As the Sporting bus approached the Estadio Dom Afonso Henriques de Guimaraes, several individuals threw stones at the vehicle.
Several Portuguese outlets reported the attack, which seems to have had no major consequences beyond the material damage that might have been caused.
