Positive for him Romelou Loukakos it seems that the much-discussed case of the punishment of the Belgian striker, who was sent off with a second yellow card in the first semi-final of the Coppa Italia, for his celebration after the goal he scored in the last minutes of the match, seems to be over.
The 29-year-old signaled his Juventus fans to shut up, responding to the racist attack he received earlier, with the match referee deeming his celebration provocative, sending him off.
Lukaku would therefore be ineligible for the second leg, with Inter appealing against the decision, which was rejected. Finally, the president of the Italian Football Federation, Gabriel Gravinaannulled the sentence imposed on the Belgian, who he will normally be available for the Nerazzurri in the big match next Wednesday (26/4).
“The principle of combating all forms of racism is a fundamental element of the sports system. There are therefore serious reasons for granting a pardon in an exceptional and extraordinary case”says the relevant regulation on which Gravina stepped, who thus wanted to send one resounding message against racism!
