A group of 11 Lazio fans are seeking to take referee Piero Giacomelli to court after he sent off Ciro Immobile.

Now calciomercato.com reports that 11 Laziale are taking things further, presenting a summons to the judge relating to the Torino game on December 11.

The fans are claiming that Giacomelli and his VAR assistant Marco Di Bello infringed their “right to support” with incorrect application of the regulations on VAR.

A hearing has been set for June 25, though evidently it’s very unlikely the case will ever go to trial.
