Raise 'rotten fingers' in the awards ceremony, Brazilian volleyball star received a penalty

Recently, the Discipline Council of the World Volleyball Federation (FIVB) has officially made the law on the case of the Brazilian Men's Volleyball Star – Lucas Saatkamp.

According to the law, the No. 1 side of the Brazilian male volleyball has violated the regulations of FIVB with the “rotten finger” in the awards ceremony at the World Championship Men's Volleyball Championship 2022 on September 11, 20022.

The star's actions were accidentally recorded when he and his teammates were receiving bronze medals at the world's largest volleyball tournament in Poland.

Under the penalty from FIVB, Lucas will be suspended 4 matches in the Brazilian male volleyball shirt at the official FIVB tournament accompanied by a fine.

Earlier, Lucas's actions in the awards ceremony were broadcast live to many countries that had to receive countless criticisms from fans. It was different from his calm attitude on his field.

Worth mentioning, this is not the first time the Brazilian national player has been acting like that. At the 2019 World Cup volleyball tournament in Japan, he used to take the same action and also had to receive a penalty from FIVB.

Many people believe that perhaps the penalty is not too heavy, causing the male woman to recreate again and perhaps it is necessary to have a stronger sanction on such behaviors from the athletes or volleyball coach.
