Match fixing & betting scandal

On 23 October 2023, Pinson deliberately kicked the ball after a free-kick was given to the opposition to be booked in the 42 minute game against Sepsi Sf. Gheorghe after Drolé, another FC Botosani player that was a substitute for that game found out that Pinson was about to be substituted at half-time. A betting agency in Botosani reported that someone intended on betting 10.000 RON (approx. 2500 EUR) on Pinson being booked during the game.[8]
