João Murteira, Cartacho’s youth player, was sent off in a match against União de Tomar for asking the referee to do something against a fan who had called him a “son of a bitch” from the bench, explaining to the referee that his mother had died on 15 days ago.
“There is no insult in any way, it’s just asking him to take action because he lost his mother and couldn’t be offended by starting to cry,” Paulo Murteira, the father of the player in question, tells Record. ‘. The Kartakhso U17 coach also assures that his version can be confirmed by a PSP agent, who observed everything and asked him to identify the fan in the stands.
João Murteira already knows that he will have to serve a two-game suspension. Daniel Souza, the team captain who went into the stands to calm his temper, was suspended for three months. Paulo Murteira is now the subject of a disciplinary process and has already asked the Santarem Football Association to overturn the punishments.
