Bayern Munich’s Luis Diaz has been handed a three-match ban for serious rough play after being sent off in the club’s 2-1 Champions League win over holders Paris St. Germain earlier this month, UEFA said on Friday.
Diaz scored both goals in Paris but was sent off just before half-time for a violent tackle on PSG’s Achraf Hakimi.
PSG confirmed a day later that Hakimi had seriously sprained his left ankle, and the Moroccan full-back has not played for the Ligue 1 club since.
Hakimi won the African Footballer of the Year award on Wednesday by limping onto the podium while moving around on a scooter.
Bayern boss Vincent Kompany expected Diaz to only miss Wednesday’s trip to Arsenal, but the Colombian winger will also sit out home games against Sporting on December 9 and Union St Gilloise on January 21.
«My information is that he has been suspended for one match… I would be disappointed if my information is incorrect,» Kompany told reporters earlier on Friday.
Bayern top the Champions League table with twelve points from four games, one of three teams with a perfect record, along with their next opponents Arsenal and Inter Milan.
