In recent days, Abisso's decision to cancel Piccoli's goal in the 93rd minute caused a sensation. Lecce-Milan. The same Giallorosso President Saverio Sticchi Damiani had intervened, albeit with his usual calm tones, to say that what happened was truly questionable and that if the VAR is used to split hairs, there is a risk of killing the magic behind the football and a people who dream.
Lecce-Milan, the words of Sticchi Damiani at the end of the match
The Sports Judge had used a heavy hand in the days following the match against Lecce. Among disqualifications and fines, the DS Trinchera, the CEO Mencucci and the President Sticchi Damiani himself (disqualified for 3 weeks) were hit by the measures "for having, at the end of the match, assumed an intimidating attitude towards the officials in the changing rooms of the race by repeatedly addressing them with offensive and threatening expressions; infringement detected by an Assistant.”
A disqualification that surprised most, considering the always attentive and respectful attitude of the President of Lecce. But what did Sticchi Damiani say? As reported by Alfredo Pedullà's website, the phrases that the Salento president would have said to the referees at the end of the match emerge, which would then have led to the disqualification. These are his words: “If I'm relegated because of this crap today, I'll come and ask you for damages. Shame, you are killing football".
