The captain apologizes on social media for the expulsion. Gigi Scotto got the red card in the 14th minute of the first half in the match against Spal, leaving the Sassari team numerically inferior shortly after conceding the away goal.
« I apologize to everyone, first of all to my teammates and to all of Torres: I have the privilege and fortune of being the captain of Torres and of not doing these things. Unfortunately I fell for it like a chicken . It was a fraction of a second, certainly premeditated, because he came first pushing me, then insulting me, and then finally to get head to head, and as often happens on the playing field, touching us head to head, he threw himself on the ground and it was more smarter than me."
The captain doesn't look for alibis: « Nevertheless, I shouldn't even have come to terms with him , and I pay for this naivety which only thanks to my fantastic companions didn't cost us dearly, I've already apologized to all of them and we I wanted to do it publicly, unfortunately, I repeat, it is difficult to think in that fraction of a second."
Gigi Scotto hopes that the disqualification will not be harsh: «I apologize again, hoping at least in the referee's common sense and hoping to be able to return as soon as possible to give my contribution. Always go for Torres."
