🚨 Longoria Case: Refs File Complaint
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇫🇷 here. The controversy is escalating. This Saturday evening, after AJ Auxerre's 3-0 win over Olympique de Marseille, Pablo Longoria had strong words for the French refereeing body and the French championship. The president of OM notably called Ligue 1 a "championship of crap" and spoke of "real corruption", outraged after the red card received by his Canadian central defender, Derek Cornelius. This Sunday morning, the referees' union and Philippe Diallo, president of the French Football Federation, reacted to this outburst and these accusations. A few minutes before the kick-off of the match between FC Nantes and RC Lens (3 pm), referee Jérôme Brisard, who is officiating this 3 pm match, spoke on behalf of all Ligue 1 central referees on DAZN's airwaves. The referee announced that this Monday, all professional central referees in Ligue 1 "will go to the Prosecutor's office in their region to file a complaint for defamation" following Pablo Longoria's comments. 📸 MIGUEL MEDINA - AFP or licensors
