The Peruvian volleyball team was playing its last chances against the Argentinean team to qualify for the 2014 Italy World Cup, and coach Sun Jing Hong disagreed with the referee's decisions and forced his players to leave the field.

This decision had an effect, the South American Volleyball Confederation sanctioned Korean coach Sun Jin Hong with a two-year ban. On the other hand, the Peruvian Volleyball Federation was fined $20,000.

The President of the Federation, Luis Linares, made the decision not to appeal the ruling because he believes it is fair. "The Confederation acted with great judgement in issuing this ruling, and we will not appeal because we believe it is fair," he told the media.
