The author of the attack against the coach of the German football team Borussia Dortmund, committed in April 2017, before a match against AS Monaco in the Champions League and a soldier with two wounded, was sentenced on Tuesday 14 years of imprisonmentsays the AFP.

The Dortmund court found guilty of attempted murder on Sergei Wenergold, 29 years old. Wenergold, a German of Russian origin, admitted that he had exploded to be able to take advantage of the collapse of the club's actions.

After 11 months of trial, the prosecutor's office has asked for life imprisonment, considering that the accused intended to kill as many people as possible. On the contrary, the defense required a maximum sentence of 10 years imprisonment, alleging that the accused was more inclined to "to provoke fear" than to kill.

"I would like to apologize to everyone"Said Wenergold during his last speech.

Marc Bartra, injured in the bombing against Borussia Dortmund coach

The attack did not result in a massacre, the balance being limited to two wounded: the Spanish defender Marc Bartra, who had a broken right wrist, and a policeman who had a hearing loss.

For Borussia, the assassination had several adverse consequences. Still in shock, the footballers were forced to play the next day with Monaco in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League. They were finally eliminated (defeats 2-3 and 1-3), with the impression that they could not defend their chances equitably.

The decision to play so quickly sparked a conflict between technician Thomas Tuchel and club president Hans-Joachim Watzke. At the end of the season, Watzke sent the coach back despite the very good results.
