Josef Engmann Modu risks a fine after taking two (!) shots in the match against Djurgården on Friday.
Pending the decision of the Disciplinary Board, the club now choose to suspend Ingman for one match.
– We want to show on the part of the club that we do not accept this kind of behaviour, says sporting director Henrik Gradín.
After Friday’s Allsvenskan meeting between Ö-viksklubben and Djurgården, interest has been directed towards Modo full-back Josef Ingman. The reason was in two instances where the 27-year-old was considered an extra and reinforcement role in close combat situations.
IC More’s broadcast was heavily criticized by expert commentator Fredrik Soderström.
– It would be embarrassing. He said at the time, it appears he was shot in the chest by Faris a few seconds later.
After the match, Ingman was reported to the Hockeyallsvenskan Disciplinary Committee, where he was being investigated for the filming and risked a fine of up to ten thousand kronor.
Club message: Stay for the next match
While awaiting the verdict, Modo has now chosen to act himself, by suspending Ingman from the match in the team’s upcoming match against Kristianstad on Wednesday.
– He will rest on Wednesday and then return to work again on Friday, Modo’s sporting director Henrik Gradin told Sportbladet.
Why did you make this decision?
– We want to show on the part of the club that we do not accept this kind of action. We feel we cannot stand behind such obvious exaggerations and want to curb this type of behaviour.
The decision came over the weekend, Jardin says.
How did Joseph himself react to the decision?
– He accepted the decision and expressed his deep remorse. This was never his intention, but now it turns out the way it did, then he has to suffer the consequences of it.
