Among the 54 posters of the fourth of the Coupe de France disputed this weekend in Brittany, one of them could not be completed. This is the one opposing the Gâs of Saint-Yves Bourg-Blanc to the US Goudelinaise, two formations of Regional 2 which met at the Touroussel stadium in the Finistère town of Bourg-Blanc. Already marked by very long stoppages linked to injuries on both sides, the meeting took a different turn shortly after half an hour, when the number 9 of Goudelin, warned of a second yellow card and therefore excluded, refused to leave the field.
The reason ? The player did not agree with the fate in store for him and, according to various sources, allegedly insulted the referee. A version denied in the evening by the Costa Rican club through a press release, which considers that “at no time were insults from our excluded player pronounced towards the central referee of the match “. On the other hand, what neither of the two clubs denies is that the official therefore decided to stop the match around the 42nd minute of play, and this while Goudelin led 1-0 in the score.
Goudelin did not sign the scoresheet
Near West France, the president of GSY Bourg-Blanc confirmed this scenario, adding that on both sides, many people tried to make the excluded attacker listen to reason: “On our side as on the side of Goudelin, we did everything to persuade him to leave the field so that the match could resume. But he refused because he felt he did not deserve this sanction. So before the end of the match. of the first period the referee stopped the match “, relate Eric Hernandez.
The two teams separated “on very good terms”, and are now awaiting the return of the regional competition commission of Brittany, which could opt for a game lost on the green carpet for the locals. “We subsequently refused to sign the scoresheet challenging the terms used on it regarding the exclusion of our player.”, said Goudelin President David Le Pezron.
