translated from Spanish: They will impose harsh penalties on clubs that do not respect health measures

The ANFP Return of Football Commission, an instance of representatives of First A and First B, continues to work on a protocol and health measures to enable clubs to return to activity in the short term. According to El Mercurio, a regulation is being developed that would establish harsh economic and sporting sanctions on those teams that do not respect the hygiene provisions that are determined. One member of the body told the morning that “discipline, responsibility and honesty are very important in this process. If players shake hands in a practice or don’t respect recommended distances, they will suffer severe punishment.” The protocol states that they will not be able to train more than 4 players separated by 20 meters, they will not be able to use the dressing beds and the technical bodies will be able to wear masks all the time. Dr. Fernando Yáñez, who is part of the commission, noted in this regard that “this reinforces the importance of the health protocol for football. You have to see what happened in the leagues of Spain, Italy and Germany, which have had positives of COVID-19, and the important thing is to take the appropriate measures respecting the indications of the authority”.
