Mbappe tackle just now on 18:05 - Apr 13 with 3432 views | SuffolkPunchFC | That is a tackle that deserves so much more than a red card. A very long ban should be incoming. |  | |  |

Big ban if not Real Madrid money rules football ie Man City and points deduction. |  | |  |
Mbappe tackle just now on 19:41 - Apr 13 with 3004 views | bluelagos | Was there any previous? Horrific tackle, but ordinarily Mbabbe not a dirty player, so wondering if the bloke had previously done him or a RM team mate? |  |

Any ‘previous’ could not justify a tackle like that, could it? |  | |  |

Depends. If the bloke had gone down Mbabbe's shin 5 mins earlier then it would be a very different to if he hadn't. Retaliation is never legit - but it will always happen, especially if a ref has missed a really nasty challenge. |  |

Even if there was previous, It’s never justifiable to retaliate like that - there is a clear double movement there. He effectively stamps on his leg, and is clearly deliberate. He could have finished a career with that assault (I refuse to call it a tackle). Anyone trying to justify the assault needs to check their moral compass. |  | |  |

Is that an automatic 1 match ban though? And then, there needs to be a charge which Mbappe has 14 days to respond to, then he'll be given a further 2 match ban sometime in the 28/29 season, like would happen in the Premier League? |  |

There's a lot of talk of Madrid bias in refereeing and in the Spanish FA. Tabas who is La Liga president is a open supporter of Real Madrid. I'm not keen on conspiracy theories coming out of Catalonia, especially since Barça have had dodgy looking dealings with the head of refereeing. But it is remarkable that Madrid have been awarded 12 penalties this season, that's one less than the first and third teams in La Liga combined. Many here will be watching the Arsenal match tonight very closely. |  | |  |

From ESPN : The federation's disciplinary committee said that Mbappé received the one-game ban for "violent conduct." Mbappé was aided by the referee's report, which said the challenge had taken place "while disputing the ball." That meant the forward would receive a suspension of between one and three games, with the committee opting for the more lenient option. |  | |  |

He was "fighting for the ball", according to the ref, who originally gave him a yellow. It seems that they mainly decide the punishment based on what the ref says, despite having videos of it from many different angles. Bizarre decision. |  |

The same ref that didn't see the foul and had to go to the video screen when VAR intervened. His report of the incident meant that it would only ever be a one match ban. |  | |  |

Corrupt decision. Outrageous. Wonder what the player tackled is feeling - sore in more ways than one, I suspect. |  |
