INTER STATEMENT REGARDING VALENCIA INCIDENT Wednesday, 07 March 2007 18:10:58 MILAN - Further to the disconcerting incidents of aggression that took place in Valencia, F.C. Internazionale cannot underestimate or forget the fact that it was the victim of an absolutely serious situation, which arose from the physical aggression towards one of its players, who sustained a broken nose after being provoked. Any reaction that occurred was consequent to this unjustifiable episode; reactions that saw a player hit in cold blood at the end of the match and without any reason, when efforts had already been made to restore the calm after verbal provocations, which also came at the end of the match, and were directed at the same Inter player. What happened should have been prevented beforehand. In consideration of the atmosphere inside and outside the stadium, both before and after the match, including the banner bearing the word 'Vendetta', which goes against all the rules of fair play, the club feels it should defend its image and that of its players, and point out the organisational limits of security which led to further confusion, both after the assault on Nicolas Burdisso and while all Inter officials were busy accompanying their players back to the dressing room. For this reason, and certain that the exact evaluation of the facts that saw F.C. Internazionale become a victim of provocations and assaults will not have escaped the attention of UEFA, the club announces that it will assert its rights in all relevant courts, and with all the resources at its disposal. 在瓦伦西亚的骚乱中发生的侵犯事件后,国际米兰足球俱乐部不能低估或忘记这是一个非常严重的形势的事实,该形势是从我们的一名球员遭受身体上的侵犯升级而成的,我们的球员在被挑衅后鼻梁骨骨折。之后的所有反应都是针对这个无理的事件发生的;比赛结束后,在遭到言语上的挑衅之后,我们已经作出努力保持冷静,但当看到一名球员无故被殴打出血以后,我们的球员作出了反应;该挑衅同样是针对同一名国际米兰球员。已经发生的事情本应被预防。 考虑到比赛前后球场内外的气氛,包括球场内打出的标语“Vendetta(意为滚出去,译者注)”,这违背了公平竞赛的所有原则。俱乐部认为应该保护球员及其权益,并指出组织上的安全极限造成了随后的混乱,不论是对尼古拉斯-布尔迪索的侵犯还是当国际米兰官员忙于陪同球员返回更衣室的时候。 基于以上原因,以及某些对国际米兰足球俱乐部成为挑衅的牺牲品事实的客观评价,侵犯将不会逃脱欧足联的注意,俱乐部宣布将在所有相关的法庭上维护一切权利,并保留我们控制之下的一切资料。 |
