Barca will no longer have to worry about an additional sanction for Lewandowski. As happened with Xavi and his red card against Atleti, Lewandowski has been suspended as indicated by the regulations and will be available to play in the Clasico

Calendar of FC Barcelona

As it was to expect , the Committee of Competition of the Real Spanish Federation of Football sanctioned only with a party to Robert Lewandowski by accumulation of yellow cards. Like this, the Pole will lose the party against the Cádiz of the next 13 April, but will be able to be available to play the Classical of the day 21 against the Real Madrid in Santiago Bernabéu, a duel that will be key for the denouement of the tournament.

And it is that until this Wednesday existed some doubts by the form in that Lewandowski saw the fifth yellow against The Palms, losing time of clear way until Busquets Ferrer taught him the cardboard. This strategy of the leading Barcelona centre put on the table the possibility to receive a party more than punishment for forcing the card of deliberate way, something that sucedió already Guillamón in the season 2020-21.

There was not a valid context to sanction to Lewandowski by his strategy

However, the comparison with that precedent was very out of context since in the case of Guillamón himself that there were proofs of how Javi Gracia, technician of the team che in this moment, had asked him that it held to see the fifth card. But in this case Competition only sanctioned with a party to Lewandowski, that will be in the Classical and will be, except some physical problem, headline in front of the whites.

It is important to highlight equally that beside the goleador Polish also will be low in front of the Cádiz, Iñigo Martínez and Cancel. The Committee also has confirmed the sanction of a party by accumulation of cautions to the two defences of the Barça, although in the case of both himself that had an even more remote possibility that they could receive an additional party for forcing the card.

Massive rotations for the Barça in front of the Cádiz

Without Lewandowski, and remembering that three days before the Barça will visit to the PSG by the Champions, Xavi has the option to bet by Vitor Roque like titling, although it also has the alternative of Ferran Torres, that already contested some minutes in front of The Palms. Xavi has used in a lot of occasions to the ex of the City in this position and has options to be the elected, although the natural alternative would be to trust the Brazilian youngster, taking into account that Ferran could play by Raphinha or Lamine Yamal, those who surely will rest also that day.
