The visit of Leganes Montjuïc will be the first of two sanctioned matches he must serve Hansi Flick after his relegation against Betis. The question that arises is: What can and cannot the German coach do tomorrow at the Estadi Olímpic? This is the article 56 of the RFEF Disciplinary Code which relates to the way in which penalties are carried out in matches where it determines the margin of action when a coach is sanctioned. In particular, it says that “when the suspension falls on a technician, it will imply, in addition to the aforementioned prohibitions, the prohibition of being close to the bank and giving instructions of any kind and in any way to those person who participates in “Technicians who incur any of the aforementioned prohibitions shall be sanctioned in accordance with the provisions of article 110 of this Disciplinary Code.”
That means, Hansi Flick Yes, he is allowed in the locker room before, during breaks and at the end of the match. What he could not do was approach the bank or give any kind of instructions. This means that initially you cannot interact with any member of your team who is on the bench during the match. Something that, however, often happens. It is common to see coaches equipped with “headsets” and communicating directly with their bench. Since FIFA already allows the use of electronic devices, it is very difficult to ensure that sanctioned coaches are having these types of conversations.
If he proves it, the coach is exposed to a very harsh punishment. According to article 110, which first speaks of “obtaining any of the prohibitions contained in articles 55 and 56 of the Disciplinary Code, in relation to complying with the sanction of suspension for matches or for a certain period of time.” And regarding the possible punishment, it is specified that “the person guilty of this type of incident will be punished with a suspension of four to twenty games or one to six months.”
In the case of UEFA The sanction also means that in any of its competitions the coach cannot access the locker rooms at any time before and during the match. Only once a few hours have passed since the meeting ended.
