Patron FCSB, a new take on women in football

Known for his views against women in football, Gigi Becali has made another controversial statement, this time to Iuliani Demetrescu.

“I saw the Voluntari – Mioveni match! The judge was a woman with her chest in the wind on the field! Have you mentioned this before?

This is what we needed! Where does she undress before the match? What it is? I know, yes, in Western Europe, this is the fashion, but why is it so in our country? Go to women’s football” – said Bekalifor ProSport.

In the past, the FCSB boss disagreed with a rule imposed by the FRF that required him to form a women’s football team.

“If they want me to have a women’s team, I will quit football. What does it mean to do something against God. I have my sins too.

But I don’t do unnatural things. No! This is in accordance with the ideals of Satan. Girls play handball, basketball. How to play women’s football? This is not for football. Her limbs are not made for football.

A woman was created by God from a man, for a man. A woman is created so that a man feels attracted to her. If we do this, we make a mockery of the forms God created to attract man. We call that a woman! Boxing and football make women fall,” Gigi Bekali told Sport.ro at the time.

Iuliana Demetrescu headed the match between FC Voluntari and CS Mioveni, score 1-0, assisted by the two assists of Volodymyr Urzike and Mihaela Šepuse.
