Lega Serie A on Juventus-Napoli: “The protocol has certain rules”

Wall against wall between the Serie A League and Naples on the postponement of the match with Juve. A real duel of interpretations on circulars and protocols, which runs the risk of invading the scene of sports justice with a very tough fight. The tone of the last press release of the League does not leave room for too much imagination and runs towards 0-3 at the Sports Judge’s table. However, it is not taken for granted that the decision can already be made on Tuesday, because appeals and requests for additional information may already arrive in both directions, Naples and Turin.

However, the new note from the League, after receiving the formal communication from Napoli, “clarifies that the current regulatory system must guarantee maximum protection of the health of the people involved, equal treatment between the different clubs, as well as respect for the principles of fidelity “. “La Lega does not believe that there is a ban on traveling to Turin in ASL communications:” Basically, it should be remembered that the Campania ASL note was limited to notifying the ordinary measure of fiduciary isolation against the close contacts of the Zielinski player. In the present case, however, the FIGC Protocol agreed with the CTS and integrated by the Circular of the Ministry of Health of June 18, which recognizes the opinion of the CTS no. 1220 of June 12, 2020, which was not taken into account. not even in the mail of the deputy chief of the office of the president of the Campania region. “Of the three documents sent by Napoli, the two responses from the two ASLs and the one from the Region’s assistant cabinet, in two cases there is no to the circular protocol, that of the soft quarantine (with the possibility that the “negative” players pass to play the matches), which instead is mentioned in that of Asl Napoli 1 Centro.

According to the Lega, “this special state law, applicable to the situation of Napoli that has two covid-19 positive players, is the same one that was used several times during the season to allow, merely as an example, Turin to face Atalanta, Milan to go to Crotone or Genoa to play in San Paolo, and today to Atalanta to go out on the field against Cagliari. The protocol establishes certain and non-derogable rules, which allow the dispute of league matches even in the event of a positive result, to deploy the players who tested negative in the tests carried out and reported within the period set by the health authorities ”. Finally, “the Lega City Council has also approved a specific regulation to be adopted in the event of multiple positivity that may lead to the postponement of the matches only when certain conditions are met that, for now, do not apply to the Napoli case, and there are no measures by state or local authorities that prevent the regular development of the game. Therefore, the ‘justification’ for the protocol remains to allow all matches to be played and consequently the regular conclusion of Serie A Tim. “
