Racism in football, Calcagno: “Sporting sanctions are inevitable in case of serious incidents”

“The fight against these forms of ignorance is already possible. Internal federal rules are very well developed. As happened in Udine, the players, the referee and the federal prosecutor’s office decided to temporarily suspend the match. But the rules also stipulate that public safety authorities can permanently suspend the match. This is a responsibility that also has implications for public order and cannot be delegated to the players or the referee.” How Umberto CalcagnoPresident of the Italian Footballers’ Association, guest of Radio Anchio Sport on Rai Radio 1, about incidents of racism against Rossoneri goalkeeper Mike Maignan during the Udinese-Milan match on Saturday evening.
