FC abrcelona coach Frank Rijkaard has requested to technical secretary txiki Begiristain and president Joan Laporta not to punish Barca´s Cameroun striker samuel Eto´o and to close the "case Eto´o" now.
Both, Txiki Begiristain and Frank Rijkaard, have confirmed today in a press conference, that the "case Eto´o" is closed and no sanctions to the players have been made.

Txiki was the first who spoke to the media and explained:

The issue is dealt with and we are happy that the case is closed now. Frank has requested that Eto´o should not be sanctioned because he believes in the self-management of the team. It has all been an error from the first moment, from Sunday night on, and there has been a lack of dialogue and that is, what we have to avoid from happening again.

Barca coach Frank Rijkaard has sent out a positive the message, to look forward and to forget the past:

We are happy now, because the team has demonstrated to be a great group. What happened, could have a positive effect on the team and in fact, we already have seen it in the training this morning.
