Defeat for Liefering: Bundesliga punished controversial game!
Defeat for Liefering: Bundesliga punished controversial game!
In the dramatic last act of the second division game between Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz and FC Liefering, there was an incident that shook the football world. In the 90th minute, while Bregenz led 2-0, the game broke out by a spectator due to a racist insult to a laurel player. The player and his teammates then left the field closed, as a sign of the protest against this scandalous incident. The Senate 1 of the Austrian Bundesliga decided on Monday that the game was rated 3-0 for Vorarlberg, and classified the deprivation of the guests as "unjustified", as laola1.at reported.
Managing Director of FC Liefering, Manfred Pamminger, said calmly about this decision and explained: "We expected it to be that way." Pamminger also emphasized that the demolition of the game was a right decision, even if this leads to a defeat at the green table. The quick and determined reaction of those responsible for black and white Bregenz, who immediately took measures to counteract the situation, should be positively emphasized. The witness, who made the insulting statement, was identified as mentally impaired and expelled from the stadium immediately after the incident. This pending distancing of the Bregenz house showed that the club is taking a clear point of view against discrimination, such as reported.
The Bundesliga made it clear that it has a high sensitivity to discriminatory incidents and praised Bregenz's rapid reaction to make the best of this unfortunate situation. However, the circumstances of the incident throw a shadow on football and show the challenges with which the sports community is faced with racism.
