Both footballers were shown their fifth yellow card in the #MálagaRealSporting clash held at La Rosaleda, corresponding to LaLiga SmartBank matchday 23.
As such, Escassi and Jozabed are suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards in different matches, from the upcoming league game at La Rosaleda against UD Ibiza.
On a cycle of four yellow cards, one away from suspension, are defenders Javi Jiménez and Mathieu Peybernes. As is Luis Muñoz, who is out of action due to long-term injury.
The Blue and White player appeared in the Juan Cortés press room at La Rosaleda following the match against Burgos CF. “For the fans, the shield and the Club we need to show respect, continue training, go out there to win even though there’s nothing at stake, and go on holiday with a victory,” he affirmed.
The team was in training this Sunday morning at La Rosaleda’s facilities. The starting players in action against Oviedo yesterday worked in the gym, whilst the others were at the Annexe.
