The case shocked many Aveyron referees, who called not to officiate during the matches of the weekend to come. One of their colleagues was violently attacked Sunday, during the meeting between Foissac and Penchot-Livinhac, in Departmental 3.

The man with the whistle came and gave a yellow card to the local goalkeeper, who was contesting a decision while his team was led 0-4 late in the game. According to Center Presse Aveyron , the porter gave him a whim before biting his ear. The referee, who stopped the match, was prescribed sick leave until Friday.

He filed a complaint, like his colleague from the same department who, in April 2019, claimed to have been slapped by a player from Aguessac whom he had just expelled, during a match of Departmental 1 against Réquista.
