Australian accused of fingering opponent’s bum during football match

EDUARDO Nerio, 49, a member of Australia’s over-45s Maroubra United football club, stands accused of poking his finger up an opponent’s bum during a “vigorous” match at Coral Sea Park, Maroubra.

At Sydney’s Downing Centre District Court, Nerio pleads not guilty to charges of indecent assault and common assault.

Nerio says that during a throw in he only pulled the top of the man’s shorts. The alleged victim says Nerio inserted his finger “3cm” inside his anus as they jostled for position. The alleged victim says he complained to the referee, who did not see the incident. He says he has “been violated” and:
