The unfortunate double standard of the Committee with Lewandowski and Ancelotti

The sanction of three parties on Robert Lewandowski in front of what in his moment the referee considered like a gesture of contempt has woken up again the controversy around the performance of the Committee of Competition when the FC Barcelona or the Real Madrid see involved in facts that can involve disciplinary measures. In the case of the Pole there has not been greater considerations and will not be able to be present for the resumption of the activity liguera.

Not even the arguments of the twice winner of the Boot of Gold explaining his gesture, that really there was state headed to his trainer, Xavi Hernández, have carried to the Committee to reconsider his decision. In consequence, the Barça will face the derbi Catalan home in front of the Espanyol to finals of December without his main figure in attack, to the equal that in the crashes in front of the Athletic of Madrid in the capital and against the Getafe in the Camp Nou.

The 'case Ancelotti'

The first situation is quite clear, is not penalti because it does not touch the balloon with the hand".

Nevertheless, this type of designations by part of the Italian did not go object of any type of sanction. Although the subject was tackled by the department of Integrity of the RFEF, and even the disciplinary measure was on the table, the judge of Competition finished dictaminando that the same was not pertinent. Of this way, continues opened the debate on the posture of the Committee in front of this type of facts.
