Allegations presented by Athletic to the Spanish Football Federation’s Competition Committee regarding the red card Maite Zubieta received on Sunday against Atlético de Madrid were overturned, with the rojiblanca being handed a one-match suspension. The Bilbao club now has ten days to decide whether to file a corresponding appeal before the Appeals Committee.
The Bilbao team does not play again until March 4, when they have to face Sporting de Huelva away from Lezama, so Ibaigane has plenty of time to act accordingly.
Direct red
Zubieta, playing central defense against the colchoneras, was sent off with a straight red card in the 65th minute of the clash against the colchoneras after an action described by the referee in the arbitration act as “handling an opponent outside of his penalty area dodging. a clear chance to score”. The action took place in an area quite far from the Athletic area, so the red card was slightly exaggerated. The drafting of the minutes, despite everything, leaves little room for maneuver so that red stays yellow.
