They did not respect Valencia`s appeal before the derby with Barca

Valencia lost the appeal to the penalty of senior coach Marcelino Garcia Toral, so he will not lead the team from the bench during the derby with Barcelona on Sunday. The expert protested violently against a referee`s decision and was expelled to the stands in the 62nd minute of the `white-black` fight with Espanyol last weekend, won by bats by 2:0. His penalty is for two duels, which means that Marcelino will look out of the stands and the battle with Real Zaragoza for the Spanish Cup next week.


Valencia is in second place in the provisional four-point ranking of Barcelona leader.
