On March 27, FC Barcelona faced Osasuna in a late Liga match. The meeting had been postponed following the death of the copy doctor. Except that the new date set by the Liga has enraged the FCB since several players, including the South American elements like Raphinha or Ronald Araujo, played a few hours before with their national selections. Finally, that did not affect Barça, which has imposed itself on the score of 3 to 0. A defeat which was not to the taste of Osasuna, which complained that Iñigo Martinez was aligned by Hansi Flick. The Spanish team had also filed an appeal.
“The Atlético Osasuna club has today appealed to the competition commission of the Spanish Royal Football Federation (RFEF) concerning the bad alignment of FC Barcelona during the match last night at the Lluís Companys stadium. The club considers that the participation of footballer Iñigo Martínez in the match of yesterday violated article 5 of Annex I of the FIFA regulation on the status and transfer of players, who stipulates that a player who does not join his national selection for medical reasons, or who leaves the selection, cannot play matches for his club for five calendar days after the end of the international period “could we read on the press release. But that did not bear fruit. This Friday, Marcawhich relayed information from the disciplinary committee of the RFEF, indicates that Osasuna's call has been rejected. The ruling body of Iberian football believes that the alignment of D'Iñigo Martinez was not a problem and was completely authorized. End of the debate.
