The Betis – Seville of the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey that had to suspended on Saturday when Sevilla player Joan Jordán received the impact of an object from the stands of Benito Villamarín, will resume this sunday from the moment of the interruption (min. 39) behind closed doors on the same stage starting at 4:00 p.m.
The competition judge of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) transferred his resolution to the clubs involved and also to the Technical Committee of Referees.
This decision adds that “without prejudice to the immediate enforceability of this resolution, an appeal can be lodged against it before the Second Instance National Committee within the non-extendable period of 48 hours from its notification“.
It is also indicated that the provisions of article 242.1 of the General Regulations of the RFEF will be observed regarding the line-up of footballers in the resumption, with which only those who were already registered for Saturday will be able to play.
The resolution specifies that, after consultation with the clubs, the venue proposed that the meeting resume on Sunday, January 16 for organizational logistics reasons.
The Sevilla, for its part, requested that, in the event of a resumption, this does not take place before Wednesday, January 19, given that the footballer who received the impact of the bar has received a medical recommendation for a 24-hour observation period, so his team could not count on his assistance in the resumption, considering himself harmed thus.
The Seville derby was suspended by the referee after 39 minutes into the first half the Sevilla player Joan Jordan received the impact of a PVC bar on the head just after the local team tied at one.
