The precedent that suggests that Competition could annul the sanction against Vitor Roque

The one of Timóteo abandoned the field after having marked his second goal like player culé, which resulted in the definite 1-3.

Like result, the yellow card remained without effect.
The Barcelonan square could be basing in this option, since, with base in the graphic material that shows the development of the played between Roque and Marín, could have an opportunity to obtain a favourable decision. In the takings spread, evidence that the Brazilian goes to contest the balloon, but does not appreciate a clear contact with the leg of Marín. Nevertheless, it will be necessary to expect to see how values the Committee this controversy and rigorous played.
