The recent derby between UD Almería and Málaga CF has led to disciplinary repercussions. The Disciplinary Committee has imposed a fine on the Almería club due to the presence of unauthorized individuals on the pitch after the match concluded, an incident that was captured on camera and contributed to the controversy.
The sanction against Almería is based on "non-compliance with orders, instructions, agreements, or regulatory obligations" for the entry of unaccredited individuals. Images showed these people pushing Málaga CF players, forcing some to defend themselves on the field.

In addition to the club's fine, suspensions have been issued for players involved in the final brawl. One Almería player has been sanctioned with two matches for "conduct contrary to sporting order," after being noted in the match report for "confronting an opponent, grabbing an adversary by the head, then forcefully pushing another adversary." Another Almería player, who received his first career red card, will miss only one match.
Furthermore, the committee has also confirmed absences for Castellón's upcoming match against Málaga CF at La Rosaleda. Two Castellón players will serve a one-match suspension due to accumulated yellow cards. Similarly, one Málaga CF player and the Almería player suspended for one match will leave a significant void in the blue and white midfield.
