Fans Left Furious As Kylian Mbappe Receives One Game Ban For Horror Red Card Against Alaves 1y3y2p

Fans have been left furious as Kylian Mbappe has been handed a one-game ban for his horror red card challenge against Alaves.

How Long Is Kylian Mbappe’s Ban? 2t3j3h

The global superstar was handed his marching orders during Real Madrid’s 1-0 win over Alaves, as the Frenchman made a horror tackle in the first-half.

Many expected the former Paris Saint-Germain star to receive a lengthy suspension after LaLiga’s recent sanctions for reckless challenges – however it has not gone that way.

Mbappe will only miss one game after being handed a one match suspension, meaning he will be unable to feature against Athletic Club.

This is a huge piece of luck for the Frenchman and Madrid, as the prolific forward will be back in time for the El Clasico in the Copa del Ray final.

Fans React To Kylian Mbappe Ban 5f3w1i

Obviously there has been a huge response to Mbappe’s lenient ban from LaLiga and fans have taken to social media to show their frustration.

This fan pointed out how other players have received lengthy bans for similar or even tamer challenges, and pointed towards LaLiga favouring Real Madrid over the likes of Barcelona.

Mbappe:
1 game suspension for a career ending tackle.

Corea:
5 game suspension for a less dangerous tackle.

Lewandowski:
3 game suspension for touching his nose.

The fools will ignore and still jump on Negreira agenda.

Another fan questioned ‘how’ this ban could be seen as justified, as the tackle was extremely dangerous and could have ended far worse.

1 game ban for Mbappe with this tackle… @Iam_Henry_E how was this justified? https://t.co/LVLhhpx6xC

Finally, this football enthusiast labelled the decision to ban Mbappe for one game as ‘genuinely insane’ and referred to the controversial penalty win over Atletico Madrid in the UCL Ro16 as a sign of bias in top level football.

This is genuinely insane. No idea how Mbappe and Real Madrid – the club claiming that the refereeing institution is against them – have gotten away with it. This and the Alvarez penalty have made me slightly reconsider my stance on there being no bias in top level football https://t.co/52Ju9V5Sho
