Scandal in Argentina:
Fans throw metal rod at linesman!
There has been a scandal in Argentina's Primera Division. In the match between Godoy Cruz and Talleres, a linesman was pelted with a metal rod. The match was then abandoned ...
The referee had just been about to blow the whistle for the second half when he noticed the cut on his colleague's head. Apparently, spectators had thrown an iron bar at the official and the game was abandoned with the score at 0-0.
"We're not going to let one of us get injured," said the referee, explaining his decision on live TV. "If we continue to play, it will happen again. It's not the players' fault, it's the fault of uncivilized spectators."
Club publishes statement
In a statement released afterwards, Godoy Cruz condemned the incidents in the strongest possible terms. The accused now face serious consequences.
