RE: Sarebbe un campionato bellissimo, ma... - It would be a wonderful championship, but... [MULTILANGUAGE]

in Italy8 months ago

I thought this is issue of mobsters has been sorted out some months ago after arresting some of those high-profile "ultra" soccer fans tied to Inter Milan and AC Milan??

If this mobsters are still disturbing even after all the arrests, I think there is more to this issues that meets the eyes that the public don’t know about

Sort:  

One of the arrested men has started to cooperate with the magistrates and has been telling a few things, such as about the arsenal of weapons that the ultras managed in Milan.
When the news spread, the remaining ultras put up a large poster addressed to the turncoat, basically threatening him with death.
Those outside are perhaps even worse than those arrested. What is more, from telephone interceptions, it came to light that the Inter directors, Zanetti and Marotta, sent these delinquents to intimidate players who did not want to renew their contracts.
The coach, Simone Inzaghi, acted as an intermediary with the club to get match tickets to the ultras, to be resold at 10 times the original price.
Now many are asking: who can guarantee that these threats did not also reach the referees? Or to the federal prosecutor? Last year, Inter was advantaged in many matches, some cases were inexplicable.
But the most sensational case was that of Acerbi, an Inter defender, who in Napoli-Inter insulted the Napoli player, Juan Jesus, with racist phrases without being disqualified. The explanation was that there was no evidence.... With 30 cameras filming every game and Acerbi himself apologising to Juan Jesus at the end of the game saying, ‘Sorry, I'm not racist...’

This isn’t the first time, they are calling out Inter Milan and ac Milan in football scandal.

I remember some years ago when juventus was involved in a match fixing scandal, they were also called out along with them. I think that year juventus loose their title and was sent to lower division.

Juventus have learnt.. ac Milan and Inter Milan have refused to learn . Probably, when they get a very strong punishment, they’ll learn better.

That's right my friend, it was 2006 and that scandal was called ‘Calciopoli’. In reality, the investigators never found evidence of match results being fixed, but only phone calls that the directors of the various teams made to the referee designators.
You remember well! Juventus was punished the most, despite the fact that Inter and AC Milan also did the same things. Or rather, worse! The investigators found direct phone calls between AC Milan executives and referees and between the president of Inter and the referee designators explicitly asking for favourable treatment from the referees.
Yet Juventus was punished, Inter were given a Scudetto (they had finished third in the championship) and AC Milan were penalised just enough points to take part in the Champions League the following year. Which they won.
Milan teams, especially Inter, have always been protected and helped by politics, newspapers and the football system in general, but their greatest skill is to make people believe they are poor innocent victims.
