Discipline Report: Canadian Premier League Matchweek 15

All on-field disciplinary matters for the Canadian Premier League (CPL) are overseen by Canada Soccer, pursuant to its Disciplinary Code and Professional Soccer Club Disciplinary Annex.

The following players are now facing suspension, which have been determined and issued by Canada Soccer, after the 15th week of play in the 2024 CPL regular season:

  • Daniel Parra, Forge FC
    • Reason for suspension: Red Card — Second Caution
    • Sanction: One-game suspension (Saturday, July 27 vs. Halifax Wanderers FC)
  • Josué Martínez, York United FC
    • Reason for suspension: Yellow Card Accumulation
    • Sanction: One-game suspension (Friday, July 26 vs. Atlético Ottawa)

Canada Soccer’s Disciplinary Panel is responsible for reviewing disciplinary charges passed through by Canada Soccer’s Incident Review Body, and determining the outcomes of those charges once the accused has responded.

Incidents involving the following players were reviewed by the Canada Soccer Disciplinary Panel review, which issued the following decision(s):

  • Ruben Del Campo, Atlético Ottawa
    • Charge: Misconduct
    • Details: Following a review of the Match Officials’ report and video footage from the Sunday, July 7 match between Atlético Ottawa and Pacific FC, it is alleged by Canada Soccer’s Incident Review Body that Del Campo was an instigator of a mass confrontation between the two teams.
    • Decision: Not Guilty
  • Paul Amedume, Pacific FC
    • Charge: Misconduct
    • Details: Following a review of the Match Officials’ report and video footage from the Sunday, July 7 match between Atlético Ottawa and Pacific FC, it is alleged by Canada Soccer’s Incident Review Body that Amedume was an instigator of a mass confrontation between the two teams.
    • Decision: Not Guilty

In addition, the following players are one caution away from a one-match suspension for yellow card accumulation, after the 15th week of CPL play in 2024:

  • Aboubacar Sissoko, Atlético Ottawa
  • Manuel Aparicio, Atlético Ottawa
  • Yann Fillion, Halifax Wanderers FC
  • Joshua Heard, Pacific FC
  • Sean Young, Pacific FC
  • Raphael Ohin, Valour FC
  • Austin Ricci, York United FC

Per Canada Soccer’s Good Behaviour Incentive, when a player plays in five consecutive league matches, either as a starter or a substitute, without receiving a yellow card or red card or other discipline sanction, the player’s yellow card accumulation total will automatically be reduced by one yellow card.
