Catania - Walter Zenga

Serie A’s Catania unveiled a new look idea during their 3 – 2 win on Sunday against Torino when forward Gianvito Plasmati (Number 16) dropped his shorts, along with two other teammates while standing at the end of Torino’s wall to make it life difficult for Torino keeper Matteo Sereni.

Guiseppe Macscara stepped up, scored and the controversy began immediately for Head Coach Walter Zenga.

“This is a strategy that Zenga tries continually in training,” Pietro Lo Monaco, the club’s chief executive, told RAI state radio Monday.

Former referees coordinator Paolo Casarin called the move “unsportsmanlike and in bad taste.”

“It’s a trick that should not be tolerated anymore by the referees,” he said.

Lo Monaco replied: “A trick? I wouldn’t say so. It’s up to the referee to decide if it should be penalized, otherwise I don’t see where the problem is. … Good taste is relative.”
