Real Sebastiani Rieti issues two releases after tragedy

Double press release from Real Sebastiani Rieti after Sunday night’s tragedy.

.

“What happened at the end of the match against Estra Pistoia leaves us dismayed – reads the first -. The bus carrying the visiting fans, on the way back, suffered an unspeakable act, as the victim of a stone pelting that caused the death of a driver of the bus itself. Sebastiani disassociates itself completely from what happened and expresses its most sincere condolences and sympathy to the family of the driver who tragically passed away. This is a very serious matter on which the investigators, in whom we have full confidence, will shed light. We find ourselves talking about facts that have nothing to do with sports, and totally distant from the values that every day, as a club, we try to carry out.”

“Perhaps we will never be able to metabolize what happened last night, after the game – is written in the second, disclosed after midnight -. The passage of hours makes everything even more bitter and inexplicable, hours in which as a club we have carried out reflections. Pending the progress of the investigation that, we hope, will shed clear and definitive light on what happened, we have decided that in a sense of respect for the victim and his loved ones we will observe a press silence that will last indefinitely. Therefore, none of our members are authorized to make any statements. It will be the society, once the facts are clarified, to move through official communications.”

“The request is therefore to respect this decision, after facts that shock us and leave a deep mark inside all of us,” the conclusion of the Lazio club.
