A "court ruling" confirms the loss of Rome and Naples to Verona and Juventus
Yesterday, the Italian sports court confirmed the defeat of Roma and Napoli in the first division, against Hellas Verona and Juventus, respectively.
The Italian Football Federation’s Court of Appeal considered that “the appeal (of Rome) was unfounded,” because the club had acknowledged committing a mistake, even if it was considered in good faith.
And at the end of last September, the Italian sports court considered Rome a 0-3 loss in front of Hellas Verona, after the capital's team involved an unregistered player.
The clubs are supposed to present a list of 25 players over the age of 22 years, and send it to the administrative bodies at the beginning of the season in order to be able to compete in the "Serie A".
However, Roma did not include Guinean midfielder Amadou Diawara, who took part in the Hellas Verona match.
Diawara celebrated his 23rd birthday on July 17.
On the other hand, the sports court had lost Napoli 0-3 and deducted a point from its tally for its withdrawal from the match against Juventus on the fourth of last October, following its request to postpone the match due to the presence of its players in quarantine due to the new Corona virus, according to the Italian League Soccer The foot.
The sports judge did not acknowledge in his detailed decision the existence of "force majeure" that prevented the team's travel, and ruled that Napoli's decision not to play in Turin was a "voluntary choice".
