Juninho suspended a match in Ligue 1 for “inappropriate remarks” towards the referee after the derby

The passion for a derby with a disappointing outcome for OL (1-1 after Wahbi Khazri’s penalty in added time) ended up getting the better of Juninho’s nerves. The report made by the referee of this recent clash between Stéphanois and Lyonnais, François Letexier, has indeed pushed the disciplinary committee of the LFP to sanction the sports director of OL on Wednesday.

The Brazilian receives three games of suspension, including two suspended, from October 19. His only firm match in Ligue 1 will therefore be during the trip to Nice, on October 24, where he will be deprived of access to the sidelines, the referees’ locker room, as well as all official functions.

If the report of the disciplinary committee published on Wednesday only refers to the “post-match behavior” of Juninho, RMC Sport indicates that François Letexier mentioned in his report “an attitude and inappropriate remarks vis-à-vis the referee” after the meeting.
