Aragonese Federation closes Pina de Ebro ground and suspends four club members after referee assault

La Federación Aragonesa has provisionally closed the Municipal Ground 'La Contienda' until the proceedings are completed and the case is resolved. In addition, the RFAF has provisionally suspended the federation licences of four members of Pina de Ebro. Two of them are players (Artury Yandel Córdova and Johan Omar Madrid), while the other two involved are assistants (Víctor Labarta and Miguel Antonio Salvador).

The ruling states in Article Three that the clubs may submit any representations they deem appropriate, with a deadline of 12:00 p.m. this Friday. 'Both clubs are required, within the deadline specified in the previous section, to provide this Competition Committee with all the information available to them that could help identify the people who took part in the incidents that occurred at the conclusion of the match,' Article Four states. The two organisations are also urged to provide all possible evidence to assist in resolving the case.
