The Guipuzcoana Football Federation will investigate the behavior of players and fans of the Landetxa football team in Hernani

During the game on Saturday night, insults and threats were launched against the 17-year-old arbitrator, and the Ertzaintza had to be warned that nothing would happen.

As happenedlast week in Basauri, a regrettable situation occurred on Saturday night in Hernani, in the context of the clash between the local football team and the Landetxa of Irun. The 17-year-old who acted as an arbitrator in the match that took place during the night suffered insults and threats and had to enter the locker room without daring to leave.

From Hernani's management he told ETB that "it was a very tense game from the very beginning and some footballers and fans of the Irundarra team had a" aggressive attitude "towards the referee.

That being the case, the 17-year-old referee had to take refuge in the locker room.

The Guipuzcoana Football Federation has opened an investigation and announced that it will act "firmly".

Before this event was known, but asked about other similar events, Nerea Melgosa, Youth Counsellor of the Basque Government, has placed responsibility for this type of behaviour "on adults", so she has recalled that children and young people learn from adults and has asked parents to "leave frustration at home" and "show respect" when they go to the fields.
