Chapter 115: First Start VIII

The referee headed back to the field and pointed at the Porto side while indicating that no offside would occur and that the goal would stand.

Immediately, groans of annoyance filled the stadium as the Santa Clara fans who were in the majority didn't agree with the referee's call. 

They had watched the review process and also the replay of the goal and they knew it was a very close call, which to them automatically meant that it shouldn't be allowed as it wasn't their team that scored the goal so hearing the referee give a call that was the opposite of their expectations provoked their unhappy reactions.

The Porto players and fans, on the other hand, were joyous that the goal had been given and their celebrations immediately resumed, but the celebrations didn't last for long as the referee wanted the match to be resumed as soon as possible.
