Gakkaloudis: He missed a three-pointer and threw a punch at an opponent

Amazing scenery in Esperos – Renaissance for the National League 1 basketball championship.

The negative protagonist was Yiannis Gakkaloudis, who in the past has played for Panathinaikos, AEK, PAOK and Ari, among others.

Esperos defeated Anagenisi from Arkalochori, however, in the third quarter, Gakkaloudis made a three-point shot, but when he was landing, he threw a cuff at his opponent, Katsouri. Immediately the referee charged him with an unsportsmanlike foul after the protest of the player of the Cretan team.

“We condemn all forms of violence!”

A little later came the announcement of the Arkalochori Revival referring to the incident in question, which it condemned.

“Our team condemns all forms of violence on and off the field. Such incidents as the one that happened in the game of the 5th game of the National League 1 in Esperos, between one of the most experienced athletes in the category and a 19-year-old child who is now starting his basketball steps in the national categories are a moment that we would like to see you again on any playing field.

We reward the composure of our athlete who, without even following up on the incident, immediately addressed the referee asking for his dismissal.

Order could have been imposed on the field by following the regulation and by sending off the Espero player instead they kept him in the game for fear of the player in question spoiling the game.

Renaissance has proven in its course so far the love and respect for the sport. We would like corresponding respect from all sides in order to continue fighting for what we love and project to our children.”

PSAKK for Gakkaloudis: “Yannis’s behavior is unacceptable”
