The last match between the CD Barrio de la Cruz and Cijuela 2008 in the Andalucian Youth Third Division had a shameful end.
The referee of the match, in this case a woman, was attacked by a fan and insulted by the president of the local computer. He claimed sexist comments like "The girls don´t empower to arbitrate madness".
The girl was taken to hospital as a result of the damage suffered and a subsequent anxiety attack that led her to the complicated situation at the time.
It is demeaning to know that assaults on referees are more and more frequent in the world of football, especially at lower levels. What's more embarrassing is the fact that women still are not respected in the sport world, having to endure sexist remarks when they carry on their work.
People must fight against this disrespectful situation and obtain justice for all of those who defile sport committing violence.
