Today's Game Between Saprissa And Cartaginés
May Land Morados In Court
Today's game of Costa Rican Primera División
between Deportivo Saprissa and CS Cartaginés
maybe interesting, not for the action on the
soccer field, but the possible action in the
courtroom, as the Caja Costarricense de
Seguro Social (CCSS) has threatened to sue
the Saprissa if it plays today.
The Estadio Ricardo Saprissa was "clausurado"
(closed) by the CCSS for late payment of
contributions to the social security.
Xinia Fernández, speaking for the CCSS, said
that the "closure" means that the Saprissa
has to discontinue all commercial activity
in the stadium or out.
The Saprissa was barred from play last
Wednesday in the Saprissa stadium in
compliance with the closure order that
expires on Monday.
Fernádez explained that the notice give to
the Saprissa management clearly states that
the soccer club is barred from any and all
commercial activity.
The spokesperson said that CCSS officials
will not be at the Saprissa-Cartaginés game
on Sunday to stop play, but it will take
legal action against the "morados" (the
purple colour for which the team is known
for) on Monday.
