Violence against referees: Lazio without football

Violence against referees: Lazio without football

Fourteen out of 14 presidents, none excluded. A joint document, a single objective: a strong position so to speak enough violence against referees. Strike of designations for next weekend, no match in Laziofootball (rightly) paralyzed, from excellence to Under 14. The latest episode, unfortunately, had as its victim Edoardo Cavalieri from Civitavecchia, thirty years old, a physiotherapist in everyday life, attacked during Corchiano-Celere (III category, group A). The prognosis is 30 days for the infringement of the radial head of the left elbow. For a physiotherapist, serious damage. But the moral one hurts more, because the trail of violence shows no signs of stopping. The second case-Bernardini (the referee who ended up in a coma after an attack in November 2018) which Corriere dello Sport-Stadio revealed first and which also interested the Ministry of the Interior, was of no use. Hence the protest: all the presidents, among which the signature of Daniele Doveri, patron of Roma1, stands out, «agree to refrain from appointing referees and assistant referees for the matches of any category scheduled for the next weekend (6,7 and 8 December 2024)”>, a “strong and non-postponable decision». Document sent to the president of the LND’s CRA Lazio, Roberto Avantaggiato, who would have opposed a 15′ delay in matches to the strike. Meeting the opposition (justified, given the gravity of the moment) of the referees. last night the call that broke the deadlock, the president of Cra Aia Lazio, Massini, was also present (he could be the next vice president of Aia if Zappi wins). I’m going on strike this weekend and if the violence doesn’t stop it will continue. Lazio has taken a stand, the other Regions (where in some cases the violence is even greater) could follow.
