Barca to appeal Suarez Cup red card

By Daily Sports on February 9, 2017

 

 
Barcelona will appeal against the second yellow card given against Luis Suarez in their Spanish Cup semi-final that will see the Uruguay forward miss May’s final, the Spanish champions said on Wednesday.

Suarez, whose goal gave Barca a 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid at the Camp Nou on Tuesday that saw them progress 3-2 on aggregate, was sent off late after picking up a second booking for elbowing Koke.

It means he will miss the final against either Alaves or Celta Vigo on May 27.

“FC Barcelona will appeal when the competition committee views the referee’s report,” said the Catalans in a statement.

After the match, Suarez had said of his challenge with Koke: “It isn’t even a foul.”

But he retained little hope of being exonerated.

“We already know how these things go.

“That is why I am so angry because it was absolutely nothing.”
