Ever Banega used his Instagram account to apologize for the offensive comments that cost him his expulsion during the match between Godoy Cruz and Newells. In the statement he refers to Fernando Rapallini, who directed said match, to the Argentine refereeing and to the AFA.

“I understand the place that we football players occupy and I also know that respect is an essential value in society and in sport, that is why I am committed to working so that it does not happen again,” concluded the La Lepra player.
