Coupe du monde : un présentateur écarté après avoir insulté un arbitre et Gianni Infantino de « voleurs » qui « tuent le football »
A Paraguayan commentator has lost his FIFA accreditation after calling Gianni Infantino and the referee "thieves" live during the Paraguay-Turkey match. Jorge Chipi Vera lost his temper following Miguel Almirón's expulsion.
“I lost my temper.” Jorge Chipi Vera deserves credit for admitting his mistakes, but the damage was already done. The Paraguayan commentator was stripped of his World Cup accreditation by FIFA after an insulting tirade against the organization and the referees.
ABC Cardinal and ABC TV reporter lost his temper live on television during Turkey-Paraguay (0-1) when midfielder Miguel Almirón became the first player sent off in the tournament for breaking the new rule against covering one's mouth during altercations.
"Offensive and unacceptable remarks"
Launching into a lengthy tirade, Jorge Chipi Vera notably insulted FIFA President Gianni Infantino and the referee, calling them "thieves" and accusing them of "killing football".
"Under the influence of frustration over the expulsion of a player from my country, and feeling that my national team was wronged, I made offensive and unacceptable remarks against the referee, FIFA and its governing bodies," he later apologized on his social media.
