For Souleyman, “arbitration is over for me”. Football referee, he was attacked and threatened with death by players from a U19 team from Marseillan (Hérault). Why ? He simply asked for the health passes, as required by law. The assault was incredibly violent. "The guard spat in my face, and he walked along the gate, insulting me like a dirty Arab, a son of a bitch. He told me that they were going to kill me and that I was not going to go out alone. The doorman then climbs the fence and rushes at Souleyman to kick him. The referee falls and all the players on the team jump on him to hit him. He gets up and, before fleeing, notices that the guardian's brother brandishes a knife, shouting: "Leave or we will kill you!" "

Shocked by this aggression and saddened that no one came to help him, Souleyman no longer wishes to be a referee.

“I ask young people: do yourself a favor.

You are here for football.

Avoid aggression, avoid insults, avoid all that and make football look good.
