President Vitoria de Guimarães has promised to come up with a proposal to amend the League’s Disciplinary Regulations to expand criminal liability whenever the practice of insulting athletes in stadiums is proven.
António Miguel Cardoso leaves player Rocinho, a target for verbal abuse in a game with Boavista, to demand a review of the “rules applicable to the behavior of the public at sports shows”, hoping that this can create a “better definition of what is unacceptable behavior” by xenophobic racists or others”, everything, he notes, is aimed at “strengthening the applicable sanctions”.
“Unfortunately, what has happened to Roshinha since he signed with Vitoria. This was the target of the verbal attacks that affect the man and the athlete. We are outraged by what happened and believe that the regulations need to be changed. Therefore, we are going to arrange an exhibition for the League and the government, ”the Victorian leader assures.
In public statements broadcast by the club, António Miguel Cardoso also deplored the contents of the League delegate’s report on last Friday’s game against Boavista at Bessa Stadium. “He was soft in words in relation to what happened. It is necessary for institutions to be attentive to these situations so that this does not happen again, ”the repair was justified in this way.
Finally, the President of Victoria left words of encouragement and consolation to the player, who also represented the checkered emblem. “Roshinha is stronger than all of that. But we must protect him. I hope that these primary acts will not be repeated, ”concludes the presenter.
