Barca Facing Great For Messi's Maradona Tribute
01 December, 2020
Lionel Messi paid a touching tribute to countryman Diego Maradona on the weekend, but his actions might cost FC Barcelona found in the sort of a fine.
Maradona passed on last Wednesday because of cardiac arrest, and after scoring to place Barca 4-0 ahead against Osasuna on Sunday, Messi removed his jersey showing off a Newell's Good old Boys shirt without. 10 on the back.
His actions were warmly received by the audience, with many sense it had been a fitting commitment to one of the best players ever.
On the other hand, Spanish outlet Sport has reported that the Blaugrana happen to be set to be fined €3 000 (R54 000), which is in line with document 91 of the RFEF Disciplinary Code.
FIFA prohibits celebrations that involve removing a shirt, and although many people might believe this example is a unique one, it really is reported that there are no exceptions to the guideline.
