DBasia.news – The success of the Brazilian national team won the 2019 Copa America is inseparable from the role of Gabriel Jesus who scored one goal in the final match against Peru (Brazil won 3-1). But at the same time, the Manchester City striker also received a red card.
Jesus got a red card after being given a second yellow card for committing a foul. When leaving the field, the player who plays as an attacker also pushes the screen used by the referee to see VAR’s replay before entering the stadium hallway.
Reporting from Goal, actions taken by Jesus made him get sanctions in the form of a ban on appearing in international matches for two months. The 22-year-old player also received a penalty of 30 thousand dollars. Jesus has seven days to appeal.
Penalties for international appearances will make Jesus absent from defending Seleccao in the Colombia and Peru matches which will be held on September 2019. From City’s perspective, Jesus’ absence during that period can be seen as positive because they will reduce the risk of injury from one of the key players they have.
