Escassi sanctioned by Competition Committee

The versatile Malaguista will not play the last match of LaLiga SmartBank 20/21, joining Josua Mejías as the players banned from the match against Castellón.

The RFEF’s Competition Committee has announced the decisions reached from matchday 41 of the league competition.

Alberto Escassi, due to an accumulation of yellow cards, was given a one-match ban after he was shown his fifth yellow (second cycle) during #LeganésMálaga. In that match, Mejías completed the first of his two-match ban. As such, he will also miss out on #MálagaCastellón that will bring an end to the current season at La Rosaleda.

Moreover, coach Sergio Pellicer will complete the second of his three-match ban, for which he was sanctioned last week by the Committee, and therefore won’t be in the local 'Joaquín Peiró' dugout.
