The Brazilian central defender of Sevilla FC Marcao received severe sanction after sending off against Real Madrid last Saturday at the Bernabéu. The footballer saw a double yellow card and then addressed the referee.
The sanction of the Sevilla player breaks down into a sanction match for the double warning in the form of a yellow card against the white team during the 17th day; four more for “insults, verbal insults and insulting attitudes towards the main referee”; and another for “conduct contrary to good sporting order”, according to the Disciplinary Commission of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) this Friday.
Referee Muñiz Ruiz wrote in the minutes that the Brazilian player “faced” “a short distance” from his face “in an intimidating manner, having to be pushed away by his teammates.” “When he was separated, he addressed me in the following terms: ‘Fillo da puta madre’, heading towards the locker room tunnel where he kicked a ball that was in the fourth official’s area,” the document states.
Therefore, this severe punishment will make the Sevilla captain will not play again during the next month and a half of championship competitionmissing matches against Levante UD, RC Celta, Elche CF, Athletic Club, RCD Mallorca and Girona FC.
Furthermore, the RFEF Disciplinary Commission confirms the one-match suspension of the coach of the Nervionense team, Matías Almeyda, “for a double warning and subsequent expulsion”he will therefore only miss the match against Levante UD on January 4.
