After his big anger against the arbitration during the draw between Getafe and Barça, Xavi could be sanctioned with several suspension matches.
THE FC Barcelona started its season in a very original way. On the lawn of Getafe on Sunday evening, the Blaugranas conceded a draw (0-0) after a tense match marked by 31 faults including 20 from the locals. Raphinha was sent off in the first half for Barcelona, Jaime Mata in the second for Getafe, before Xavi was also sent off after getting angry with the referee.
Four suspension matches for Xavi?
But if the anger of the Catalan coach can be understood after several contentious decisions by Mr. Grado, it could cost him dearly at the start of the season. According to information from Sport this Monday, Xavi’s comments against arbitration are currently being examined by the Spanish Football Federation. And according to the Spanish daily, the former Barcelona player could be suspended for four matches if the commission opens a file on this case.
