Dalian Pro Football Club has announced that one of its foreign players, who was sent off in a recent match, will be suspended for three matches.
The incident occurred during a friendly match against another team in Europe last month, and Dalian had received a red card for sending off a player from their own country. The club then informed the referee and the local authorities about the situation, and they took action to address it.
In this case, the foreign player had been sent off after being shown a yellow card for a foul on his teammate, which led to him receiving a second yellow card. However, the referee decided not to award a penalty for the first yellow card, as he believed that the player should have played with the ball before getting into contact with the opponent.
The decision to award a red card instead of a penalty is seen by some as controversial, but Dalian believes that it serves as a reminder of the importance of fair play and discipline. They also believe that the player should be given a chance to apologize and make amends, rather than having his name associated with the match.
It remains to be seen how this incident will affect Dalian Pro Football Club's performance in future matches, but the club is committed to ensuring that their players receive fair treatment and respect.
