the essential
During an Italian 3rd division match, the coach of the Triestina team violently attacked his player, who had just been sent off.
Pep Clotet is the sanguine type. Currently at the head of the US Triestina club (Italian Serie C), the 47-year-old Catalan technician completely stripped down during the meeting against Giana-Erminio, this Friday, November 8.
The reason? The expulsion of one of his players, Latvian striker Raimonds Krollis, occurred in the 34th minute of the match, when the score was 0-0, after a bad gesture on the opposing defender.
Triestina-Giana Erminio.
The hosts remain with 10 men due to Krollis' expulsion.
Mister Clotet immediately rushes to console him and make him understand that everyone makes a mistake.

“My action was right”
Enough to make his coach come off his hinges, who then violently grabbed his player by the collar to shake him. Without him flinching. And the tension obviously did not subside after the game, finally lost with a score of 1-0 by Triestina, since Pep Clotet hit the nail on the head, as reported Tuttosport : “Krollis is done with Triestina as long as I am the coach. My action was right for what happened. What Krollis did is unacceptable, it harms Triestina, the club he represents and the Football in general.”
