Video evidence catches out Camo Tuesday 18 April, 2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus man Mauro German Camoranesi has received a two-match ban after he was caught on camera elbowing an opponent, but Cagliari are also punished.
Camoranesi was seen elbowing Alessandro Agostini in the chest after a challenge from behind, but the referee did not witness the incident during Juve’s 1-1 draw at the Stadio Sant’Elia.
The Disciplinary Commission viewed the footage and ruled it was “definitely a violent gesture,” They opted to suspend the Italian international for two games, ruling him out of the upcoming clashes with Lazio and Siena.
There was a fiery finale to that match in Sardinia, with Nelson Abeijon and Antonio Langella sent off for dissent after Fabio Cannavaro’s stoppage-time equaliser for the Bianconeri.
Abeijon has been handed a three-match ban for “pushing the referee and shouting insulting phrases,” while teammate Langella is out for two games for “grabbing the official by the shirt and hurling abuse.”
