Shocking Moment: Fan Pokes Sevilla Star Lucas Ocampos’ Bum as Club Blast ‘Obscene and Inappropriate Gesture’

2024-02-06 20

LUCAS OCAMPOS has called on La Liga chiefs to take action after a fan appeared to poke his bum during Sevilla's clash at Rayo Vallecano.

The "obscene" incident occurred in the 33rd minute of the game as the Sevilla star prepared to take a throw-in.

Cameras picked up the fan appearing to poke Ocampos' bottom, prompting him to turn around to remonstrate with the fan before calling referee Hernández Maeso over.

Following the game, which Sevilla won 2-1 thanks to a brace from Youssef En-Nesyri, Ocampos was joined by his club and manager in blasting the fan's behavior and calling for action.

Ocampos, 29, told Dazn: "You can see what happened in the [video] images. I hope La Liga takes it as seriously as it takes racism and these things.

"I don’t think all the Rayo people are like that because they have always treated us with respect, but there is always one fool.

“I hope it doesn’t happen in other areas because if this happens in a women’s football match, we know what can happen."

The Argentine added: "I kept my calm because I have two daughters, I hope this doesn’t happen to them in the future.

“I hope that the action that has to be taken is taken, and I hope that a fool like this does not stain a set of fans who otherwise behaved very well.”

Former Watford manager Quique Sánchez Flores echoed this sentiment and questioned why fans felt they could perform such acts.

He said: "You have to ask yourself what's wrong with people's minds, whether they're young or old.

"We have to ask ourselves a giant question of what is happening and where is the security and who we let in and who we don't. I'm very worried.
