Zalayeta Suspension Cancelled

Napoli's appeal to the Federal Court was successful as they agreed to revoke the two-match ban inflicted on striker Marcelo Zalayeta after an alleged dive to win a penalty against Juventus last weekend.

Napoli striker Marcelo Zalayeta's two-match ban for an alleged dive during last weekend's match against Juventus, which Napoli controversially won 3-1, has been canceled after the club appealed to the Federal Court.

The Uruguayan player had been suspended by the Disciplinary Commission on the grounds that no contact was made between him and Juve keeper Gigi Buffon on the incident that led to Napoli being awarded their second penalty of the match.

They saw it as a dive, then, but the Federal Court, whom Napoli made an emergency appeal to, agreed that Zalayeta had only jumped to avoid a possibly dangerous collision with former Juventus team mate Buffon.

A number of coaches publicly expressed their disdain at the decision to ban the player, including Roberto Mancini of Inter, Carlo Ancelotti of Milan, and Luciano Spalletti of Roma.

Now Zalayeta will be regularly available to play against Fiorentina on Wednesday evening.

Forza crowd trouble.

Always

The Roma-Lazio game can have away fans, yet Udine-Toro can't? Anyone else lost?

Nope.

Big teams get what they want, small teams don't.

More likely that it would cause too much trouble outside the ground so may as well let them in. Although Im sure a certain member could start 18 threads proving its all Guido Rossi's fault......

Indeed.

Good point about it being easier to police if they are in the ground, probably the only logical reason for it.

Zalayeta Suspension Cancelled

Frankly, Zalayeta's dive was comprehensible in a way because he would've hit Gigi if he didn't jump (yet he dived more than jumped...), but Lavezzi's olympic dive was way more scandalous, this guy should be banned. Or forced to sign for Juve.

I second your comments .. From the way i look at it, Zalayeta was avoiding a collision with Buffon. However, I'm not the referee... :frown:

I cant get angry with Zala for his past services with Juve, knocking in crucial goals against Barca and Real in the CL ...

He didn't have to dive - he could've jumped over Gigi.
Oh, BTW! Was Gigi's yellow card rescinded?:eyebrows:

Vucinic seems to be on fire these days.I think he's scored in 3 consecutive Serie A games now.
