A supporter of Rayo Vallecano, a Madrid club, crossed the limits of what is acceptable on Monday evening.
During the first period between his club and Seville, this teenager sitting in the front row of the Vallecas stadium stretched his left index finger between the buttocks of player Lucas Ocampos, who was about to throw a throw-in.
Rather cautious, the former OM player turns towards the young man but keeps his calm.
“If I react, my season is over,” he explained to broadcaster DAZN after the meeting.
I held back because I have two daughters.

The match referee still interrupted the game for a few minutes.
But the supporter was not sanctioned, being able to continue watching a match won 2-1 by Lucas Ocampos' team.
“I don’t think all the people at Rayo are like that, but there is always an idiot,” continues the Argentinian on DAZN.
I hope it doesn't happen in other areas, because if it happens in women's football we know what can happen.

Legally, the action suffered by Lucas Ocampos is a sexual assault and a criminal complaint could be filed.
In a press release published this Tuesday, the Seville club regrets that this “obscene and totally inappropriate gesture” could have occurred.
“Sevilla FC hopes that all measures will be taken to ensure that these behaviors are not repeated on a football pitch.
They cannot be allowed by a competition which aspires to be the best championship in the world.
