Italian footballer Giovanni Liberti has been handed a five-match suspension after he was accused of urinating at away supporters and "making vulgar gestures to his genital organ" during a recent Serie D fixture.
The Sun's Duncan Wright reported Turris midfielder Liberti was allegedly spotted by the fourth official urinating toward travelling fans in a 3-3 draw with Sarnese, although the club's president, Antonio Colantonio, insisted otherwise:
"Unfortunately, once again, we find ourselves faced with an injustice. Our player Liberti absolutely did not do what is alleged.
"Quite simply in the warm-up area there’s a fountain near the wall and the player, ready to come onto the pitch, was drinking and adjusting his shirt, which by regulation should be inside his shorts.
