“Shame on Benfica fans,” it was said.
Portuguese Benfica fans opened fire from the stands midway through the second half of their Champions League group stage match at the Reale Arena in San Sebastian. The chief referee of the meeting asked the captain of the visiting team to impress his fans. Nicholas Otamendi went to the podium with his fans and said something to them.
The match continued and ended with the Spanish team winning 3:1. Real Sociedad scored all three goals in the first half. Mikel Merinos, Mikel Oyarzabal and Ander Barrenechea scored the goals. Bryce Mendez missed the penalty kick in the 29th minute. Rafael Silva pulled one back early in the second half. In the 77th minute of the match, Real Sociedad’s Russian midfielder Arsen Zakharyan came onto the field.
