We already know the resolution of the Appeals Committee of Robert Lewandowski and that happens to keep the three match penalty imposed by the Competition Committee on December 16. One for the double yellow and two for the gesture when he retired and that Gil Manzano the minutes stated: “Other incidents: (Player: Robert Lewandowski ) Once sent off and on his way to the exit of the field, the player twice made a gesture of disapproval of the referee’s decision, consisting of putting his finger to his nose, and then pointing his thumb towards the referee. When he was about to leave the field of play, he repeated the gesture of looking at assistant referee No. 1 and before the fourth officer.”
The Competition Committee applied article 124 of contempt and it reads as follows: “Confronting referees, managers or sports authorities in terms or in attitudes of contempt or disregard provided that the action does not constitute a foul more seriously, it will be imposed a suspension of two to three games or for a period of up to one month.”
The Competition dismissed the appeal presented by Barcelona Football Club both for the first of two yellow cards and for the conduct of the Polish striker. Now the Barça club has 15 days to appeal before the TAD.
That means for now Robert Lewandowski the Catalan derby at the end of the year 2022 will definitely disappear as well as the rivalry against Atlético de Madrid at the Metropolitano scheduled for the first weekend of January (7-8) and the league commitment at the end of the Super Cup of Spain.
