The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and La Liga have just announced the application of a racist incident gesture for the referee. From now on, he will be able to take three decisions in the event of an incident of this type: stopping the match, temporarily suspending the match, if the problem persists after the resumption of the match, with a return to the locker room and definitively stopping the match, if this problem persists after the temporary suspension.
” The two institutions, which remain firmly committed to the fight against all discrimination in football and in particular against racist attitudes and behaviour, will implement this comprehensive and unequivocal gesture in all their competitions. (…) This is a new step in the fight against racism, which ranges from regulation and sanctions to awareness-raising and education to combat all types of discrimination. “, the Spanish Federation announced on its website.
