Romanian referee Sebastian Coltescu during the game between Sepsi OSK Sfantu Gheorghe and FC Hermannstadt for the Romania Liga 1, Round 10, in Sfantu Gherghe, Romania, November 7, 2020 ( AA ) |
The match
at Paris St Germain in December was halted after 13 minutes following an
argument on the touchline over the red card shown to Webo and only resumed the
following day after the four Romanian officials were replaced.
Webo, a
former Cameroon international, said fourth official Sebastian Coltescu
disrespected him by referring to him as "the Black one" or
"negru" in Romanian and an investigation was conducted by a UEFA
Ethics and Disciplinary Inspector.
"Proceedings have been opened against Sebastian Constantin Coltescu and Octavian Sovre for a potential violation of Article 11 of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations," the governing body said in a statement on Thursday.
Article 11 deals with general principles of conduct and focuses on breaches such as those which bring the game into disrepute.
Players from both sides, as well as the three new on-field match officials, took a knee before the game resumed the following day with PSG winning 5-1 at the Parc de Princes.
The Turkish club's president Goksel Gumusdag called for Coltescu to be handed a life ban for the remarks.
