EHF OFFICIAL STATEMENT

Suspension of Unai Arrieta (J.D.Arrate / ESP) for one match of EHF club competitions.

Vienna, 28 November 2008 - The EHF Body of 1st Instance has dealt with the case of Unai Arrieta (J.D.Arrate / ESP). 

The body was called together following the direct disqualification of Unai Arrieta in the last seconds (59:57) of the Men's EHF Cup match between J.D.Arrate/ESP and HC Kolubara Lazarevac/SRB, for an action of serious unsportsmanlike conduct. The game was played in Round 3 of the Men's EHF Cup on 23 November 2008.

As a result, Arrieta has been suspended for one match of an EHF club competition, which means that he will not be eligible to play in the next EHF Cup match (J.D.Arrate / ESP vs Aarhus GF/ DEN on 14/15 February 2008).
