Although the own referee's record reflects that the forward of the Barça received the impact of a bottle, the Committee cost the caution to the Argentinian "for losing time" when it was attended after the incident. The Barça already has announced that will resort to Appeal

The Committee of Competition has not taken into account the allegations of the FC Barcelona and keeps him to Leo Messi the yellow card "for losing time" in the postrimerías of Valencia-Barça. In the moment to be admonished, the Argentinian player was being attended after receiving the impact of a bottle launched from the terracing.

The referee collected in the referee's record the launching of several objects and consigned the fact that one of them hit in Messi. However, it considered that the player lost time when it asked assistance. The FC Barcelona already has announced that will present a resource to the Committee of Appeal.

Some images hint that, in addition to receiving the impact of a bottle, Messi also would have been struck by a coin, what still aggravates more the subject. Of the same form, the Committee of Competition also keeps the force of the second yellow card to Isco Alarcón against the Málaga, by what will not be able to play this next weekend against the Celtic.
