Portugal is going through a critical period with several fires ravaging several regions, with Aveiro being one of the areas of greatest concern due to the large fires recorded in Sever do Fuga and Albergaria Velha. The fires have not stopped yet and the municipal emergency plan has already been activated, which has also led to the closure of some roads. Ricardo Costa, Sporting's handball coach, took to social media to report the fear he was feeling.
“At 9:00 am in Porto, you decide to take the road to Lisbon. You turn on your GPS and write your final destination. Google Maps and Waze say that the A1, A29 and N109 are closed and make you take the direction of Sever do Vouga. The next thing you know, you and your children are in the middle of a fire !!!! She smiles at me slightly, I don't think you should go that way, in a few minutes this street will collapse due to the fire”, can be read in the message posted by the Sporting coach on Facebook, which he also left. Correction: “I ask, wouldn't it be better if Civil Protection informed the citizens that we should not take that direction and stay safe. Difficult to understand”.
