According to the match report, Piqué has been found guilty of "minor violence against the referees", despite no physical contact. Referee Alonso De Ena Wolf's official report alleges that the 39-year-old verbally assaulted and threatened the officiating team.
"You'd better leave with an escort so that nothing happens to you. In another country, you'd be finished, but here in Andorra we are a civilised country," the 39-year-old is reported to have told the officials.
As a result, the Spanish Football Federation handed Piqué a six-match ban and prohibited him from all official football activities for two months for "obvious and public acts that undermine the dignity and decency of the sport". Sporting director Jaume Nogues received identical sanctions for making offensive remarks.
