Um painel de arbitragem da liga rejeitou o apelo do Southampton contra a expulsão dos play-offs da Championship por espionar equipes rivais. O Middlesbrough enfrentará agora o Hull City na final no Estádio de Wembley, no sábado.

A EFL confirmou na quarta-feira que o painel rejeitou o apelo, mantendo as sanções originais contra o Southampton. Estas incluem a expulsão dos play-offs, uma dedução de quatro pontos para a temporada 2026/27 e uma repreensão por violações dos regulamentos da EFL relacionadas à filmagem não autorizada de sessões de treinamento.

O que as pessoas estão dizendo

Usuários expressaram sentimentos diversos no X: alguns questionaram a severidade da punição pela espionagem e se perguntaram se a política desempenhou algum papel, enquanto outros defenderam a finalidade da decisão e apoiaram o avanço do Middlesbrough para enfrentar o Hull City.

Please can someone explain to me like a three year old why Southampton is being punished like this? It was just a spy why the harsh penalties?

Fuck me, the fact ANYONE is arguing this is baffling.
