During a match between Pulcini at the Bruno Cereda sports centre, the father of one of the children on the pitch approached his son’s former coach (64 years old) and then hit him with a headbutt
The facts date back to the morning of Saturday 24 February, during a match for the Idrostar Pulcini, a team from the province of Milan. One of the parents in the stands spotted their son’s former coach, reached him at the exit of the sports center and then hit him with a headbutt, broke his nose and finally fled. The coach himself declared to Il Giorno that the cause of the violence was a reproach to the attacker’s son, denying the child’s version, who instead told his parents that the coach had put his hands on him.
After the episode, the victim called for help and was taken by ambulance to San Carlo, where the results of the tests showed the rupture of the nasal septum. The president of the club Ettore Leporatti commented on the incident as follows: “There weren’t even any violent or worrying incidents. However, it was without a shadow of a doubt an event to be condemned.”
