Real Madrid | Courtois could be punished for provocation in the derby

Thibaut Courtois was in the media center of the derby between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid in La Liga. The Madrid goalkeeper was hit by a lighter and a water bottle thrown after Militao’s goal. His wild celebration of Militao’s goal was the start of several minutes of tension that could also affect him.although he was a victim of fallen targets in his area.

According to El Demark, Courtois will face a punishment that will last from 4 to 12 games

s, if the Competition Committee considers that there has been a provocation.

In this sense, Atlético Madrid has a lot to say. If the Red and Whites present images of Courtois addressing the public in their accusations, the committee could hold the Belgian’s behavior in the derby accountable.

Article 98 of the Federal Regulations states that “to arouse public hostility by pursuing such an objective”except that since this happens, as a consequence of this, serious incidents, the violation constitutes a serious offense, punishable by a suspension of four to twelve games.

Wounded

Courtois is injured and will miss match against Villarreal in the league the next day. Then comes a break: on October 26, matches with Celta Vigo and the classic match at Santiago Bernabeu.

The injury is minor, so he could play the classic for physical reasons, although a hypothetical sanction would have left him without a classic. In any case, today it seems very difficult for the competition commission to come to such an assessment.

Simeone has already spoken in this sense, and we will have to see the formula that Atlético uses in their accusations. The Competition Committee meets on Wednesday, as it does every week, to review the various judging protocols.

. In this case, the record reveals nothing about Courtois’ conduct.
