As Wendel was leaving the game, a banana-like object thrown from the stands landed next to him. Barbieri expressed regret that this is still happening in football and urged to wait for the reaction of the club.
“What do you think about the banana thing? Unfortunately, there are still things going on in modern football. I haven’t had time to contact Wendel yet. Let’s wait for Zenit’s stance on this, ”quotes Barbieri “GD”.
