Barcelona Women's Football Team's experienced defender Mapi Leon received a two-match ban due to a controversial incident during the match against Espanyol in February.
COURT REJECTED THE APPEAL
In the incident that was also captured by TV cameras, despite Leon's defense that she only touched Caracas's leg, the Court of Arbitration for Sport rejected the appeal. The 29-year-old player stated that the incident was exaggerated, saying, "I did not interfere with my opponent Daniela Caracas's privacy in any way or with any intention. The contact is not in a private area and there is no intent at all. It was a simple moment in the game, and it should not have been blown out of proportion."
However, the disciplinary board concluded that Leon acted in a manner contrary to sportsmanship. With this decision, Leon will not be able to play in the matches against Atletico Madrid and Sevilla.
