When Yann Sommer arrived with Inter at the Allianz Stadium in Turin on Sunday evening, there was a red line on the cheek of the Swiss national team. As with all other players, both Juventus and Inter. The football world is wondering: what is this all about?

The answer is simple – and important. The color on the face is intended to draw attention to domestic violence against women. The message: Red card against violence!

The professionals help give the subject more weight publicly. Almost all players from the Italian league participate, including Nati crack Sommer in the match against Juventus. The same is expected of Dan Ndoye and Michel Aebischer (Monday with Bologna against Torino). Roma coach José Mourinho was also part of the campaign.

Sign against violence against women

Why this is even more important than usual this year: Two weeks ago a terrible incident took place in Italy. 22-year-old student Filippo T* from Padua kidnapped his ex-girlfriend, chopped her into pieces and threw her into a ravine near Lake Barcis, about 120 kilometers north of Venice. The alleged perpetrator was arrested in Leipzig just over a week ago. According to the Interior Ministry, 102 women have been murdered in Italy so far this year, of which 82 were the victims of acquaintances.

Serie A chairman Paolo Dal Pino said: “Thanks to this initiative, we have managed to raise awareness of this issue in recent years. I want to thank the players and referees and everyone involved.” In addition to Sommer, Ndoye and Co. All clubs in the Italian league are now participating. On matchday 13, the lines of all playing fields were colored red. (par)
