“It was easy to find the courage to report.” This was said by Stefano Milone, the referee (of the Taurianova section) who reported his colleague Luigi Catanoso of the AIA section of Reggio Calabria, arrested as part of the ‘Penalty’ operation involving match-fixing in the Primavera matches. «We referees enter the field with our stomachs, but then we think with our heads – he added -. I believe we have all the tools to be men who respect the rules. I was already happy when I reported it, I’m happy even now that legality has won.” To those who asked him if he thought there was a lack of protection for referees, he replied: “In this case I felt protected.”
