Spanish Football Association official: Real Betis was suspended for 2 games at home

The Spanish Football Association officially announced that in the match between Betis and Sevilla in the 1/8 final of the Copa del Rey, there was a phenomenon of stadium violence, and the penalty of closing beetle 2 games at the home of Betis was imposed.

The Spanish Football Federation issued an announcement saying it had decided to completely close the home of Real Betis in the next two matches, and Betis will play in another stadium that meets the requirements of the Spanish Football Association. The measures taken by Royal Betis to prevent public emergencies at the main premises are insufficient. But other penalties, such as lowering league rankings, are too strict. As a result, the committee eventually made a penalty for closing the home field.

In addition, the Spanish Football Association said Real Betis had the right to appeal the penalty within 10 working days. According to media reports, Royal Betis has sent images of the scene to the FA to prove that security has been in place in order to reduce the punishment.

In the early morning of January 16, Beijing time, the 1/8 final of the King's Cup staged a hot Andalusian derby. During the match, Sevilla player Haldane was hit in the head by a flagpole thrown by the stadium spectators, and then the referee blew the game to a halt. The game was interrupted for a time.
