🔴 Breaking News:
Nigeria midfielder Christantus Uche has been handed a three-match ban following his dismissal in Getafe’s 1-0 defeat to Espanyol last weekend.
Uche was shown a red card in the 60th minute of the encounter for stamping on an opponent.
The centre referee initially issued a yellow card but upgraded it to red after consulting the Video Assistant Referee, VAR.
The 21-year-old approached the centre referee in an aggressive manner and had to be forced off the pitch by his teammates and some members of Getafe staff.
