The newspaper “AS” revealed that Real Madrid’s management is very surprised by the decision of the Spanish Disciplinary Committee regarding the Antony crisis.
The Brazilian international was sent off in Real Betis’s last match against Real Sociedad, and therefore he should have missed Real Madrid’s next match at Benito Villamarín.
Real Betis filed an appeal against the red card and considered it invalid, which the Disciplinary Committee supported and lifted the suspension of Antony.
According to the newspaper “AS”, Real Madrid officials are confused and angry at the same time about the decision.
The information received indicates that the Referees Committee considered the expulsion decision to be correct, while the Disciplinary Committee intervened and decided that the red card was undeserved and should be canceled.
Perhaps what angered Madrid’s leaders the most was the wording of the decision announcement, which they considered illogical and distorting reality.
Undoubtedly, Antony’s participation with Betis will give them additional strength against Real, given the Brazilian’s contributions since his transfer last January on loan from Manchester United.
The 25-year-old has scored 3 goals and made 2 assists in 6 matches he has played with the Andalusian club so far, between La Liga and the European Conference League.
