Beşiktaş's Ümit Akdağ, who received a red card in the Crystal Palace match in the UEFA Europa League, has been given a 2-match suspension.
Ümit Akdağ's sanction has been announced after he was sent off with a straight red card in the 77th minute of Beşiktaş's UEFA Europa League match against Crystal Palace following his hard tackle on opponent Larsen.
2-MATCH BAN
The UEFA Disciplinary Committee classified the young center-back's action as "seriously hard tackle" under Article 15/1 of the disciplinary regulations and decided to punish him with a 2-match ban.
HE WILL ALSO MISS THE HAPOEL BEER SHEVA MATCH
Ümit Akdağ, who served the first match of his red-card suspension in Beşiktaş's away match against Celtic, will not be able to play in one more match in line with UEFA's 2-match decision. The 23-year-old defender, who joined the squad from Corendon Alanyaspor at the beginning of the season, will also leave his team without him in the black-and-whites' critical UEFA Europa League match against the Israeli team Hapoel Beer Sheva in Batumi, Georgia.
