Player suspended

The EHF Court of Handball has reached a decision following disciplinary proceedings against Filip Mirkulovski of HC Metalurg (MKD) after a disqualification for serious unsportsmanlike conduct.

The player received a direct disqualification in the last minute of his team’s VELUX EHF Champions League match against RK Cimos Koper (SLO) on 11 February 2012.

He will be sanctioned with a one match suspension based on article B.1 of the EHF List of Penalties.

The player will therefore not be eligible to play for HC Metalurg in the next VELUX EHF Champions League match against Orlen Wisla Plock, taking place in Plock, Poland on 19 February 2012.

An appeal to the EHF Court of Appeal may be lodged by the player and/or his club within seven days.
