FC Barcelona will appeal to the Spanish Sports Disciplinary Committee (CEDD) after Xavi Hernández’s yellow card against Sevilla was upheld by the league’s Appeals Committee.
The Catalan midfielder was shown his fifth yellow card of the season by referee Alberto Undiano Mallenco during the 2-3 win in the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán last weekend for protesting about Sevilla’s second goal. Barça chose to appeal the decision, but were told on Thursday that the card would stand.
Now the club will take their case to CEDD on Friday in a bid to see Xavi able to play in the title decider against Real Valladolid in Camp Nou on Sunday.
