Beşiktaş’s Brazilian football player Josef de Souza expressed his regret that his sentence was approved by the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) Arbitration Board.
Josef de Souza, who received a red card for interfering with the fans who entered the field after the MKE Ankaragücü-Beşiktaş match played in the 5th week of the Spor Toto Super League, made a statement after his objection to his sentence was not accepted.
Despite being referred to the Professional Football Disciplinary Board for his unsportsmanlike behavior, the Brazilian football player, who was not given an extra penalty, used the following statements in the message he published on his Instagram account:
“You’ll remember me on the day they killed a player or maimed him by preventing him from doing his favorite thing, or more seriously attacked a referee. I’m extremely disappointed with the decision. In Brazil they would award a suspension for something like that, let alone a suspension decision. “The person who should have been in jail was not in jail, he was sentenced to be closed for only one match, who should have received a hefty penalty. They punished the person who tried to protect the physical integrity of his friends and the referee. These days when there is talk of being against violence and solidarity in football, your message could only be this bad.”
Josef de Souza will not be able to play in the match against Medipol Başakşehir in the 6th week of the league.
