FA Reject Man City Appeal Against Vincent Kompany Red Card

Etihad Stadium centre back receives four match ban






The Football Association has rejected Manchester City’s appeal against Vincent Kompany’s red card in the 3-2 FA Cup defeat by Manchester United.

The defender, 25, will serve a four-match ban immediately for his two-footed tackle on Nani.

An FA statement said: “The suspension consists of a statutory three-match suspension for serious foul play plus one additional game given this is Kompany’s second dismissal of the season.”
