EHF Court of Handball decision released

The EHF Court of Handball has reached a decision following disciplinary proceedings against the Turkish player, Göcmen Alican.

The player received a direct disqualification in the 59th minute in the match of the 2014 Men’s European Championship Qualification 2, Turkey vs. Lithuania, which took place in Turkey on 3 April 2013.

He will be sanctioned with an one match suspension based on article B. 1 of the EHF List of Penalties and will therefore not be entitled to play in the match Lithuania vs. Turkey taking place on 7 April 2013 in Vilnius.

An appeal to the EHF Court of Appeal shall not have any suspensive effects.
