Pierre Webo, Istanbul BB’s assistant coach, was Candas Tolga’s guest on the “I just spoke” program.
Webo revealed more details about the incident that had Sebastian Coltescu in the foreground live on Turkish television. The assistant coach revealed that he learned from Okan Buruk from the way the Romanian referee addressed him.
“The referee showed two, three errors, and then he showed the card to our footballer. We got up from the bench and protested. After that, the center decided to give me the red card, but Okan Buruk told me how the fourth official addressed.
I heard something, but when I came down, Okan sent it to me. I asked him why he said that and he didn’t answer. “said Webo, quoted by Haber Global.
Pierre Webo revealed that one of the referees from Hategan’s brigade approached him and apologized: “Webo, I haven’t heard what happened, but I’m sorry!”
The Cameroonian said it is the first time he has seen himself in such a situation where he has such an exit, but that his reaction came naturally. Webo revealed that he received hundreds of phone calls and was unable to sleep after the incident.
“I watched the reruns again, I never saw myself in a situation like this. I don’t get mad that fast, but there are some emotions that came after he said those things to me.
Even when I played very poorly as a player, my family suffered. They are still affected by this incident. The event took a world turn, and the only thing I feel comfortable with is that I had a natural reaction, I felt completely myself. “
My boy called me first, I hung up. It was hard, I received hundreds of messages, I tried to sleep, but I was very nervous, very upset. I was only able to open my phone at 5-6 in the morning. “
Webo said that such behavior has no place in such competition and that racism must disappear. Appeal to world forums to find concrete solutions. The Cameroonian makes a comparison saying that the COVID virus is as harmful as racism in people’s lives.
“This is not a Romanian problem, it is a human problem. It is time to apologize. There is no place for such behavior on such a platform. This has happened to me in Spain as well. Now we have to go find solutions.” There is no excuse, we have to end this.
There are people in quarantine in the world. If such a virus affects our lives so much, I do not understand how racism does not. The epidemic has made us less sensitive to this situation. As a country, as a continent, I could not find so many opportunities. When I got to Spain, I thought maybe I would have a chance. “
In conclusion, Webo stated that he does not expect an apology from Sebastian Coltescu and that he lets him realize what he did.
“It’s good to be a symbol against racism. The fourth official doesn’t have to apologize. I let him think about what he did, that’s enough for me.”
