Marcus Rashford's Champions League Ban Confirmed as UEFA Makes Decision After Man Utd Star's Straight Red vs Copenhagen


Marcus Rashfords Champions League Ban Confirmed as UEFA Makes Decision After Man Utd Stars Straight Red vs Copenhagen

Marcus Rashford will be available for Manchester United's potential Champions League crunch clash with Bayern Munich after escaping with the minimum ban for his Copenhagen red card.

A Shocking Decision

England ace Rashford was stunned to be shown a red card after a VAR intervention that transformed United's night in Denmark.

Game-Changing Dismissal

Erik ten Hag's side were two up and on cruise control when Rashford was sent off on VAR advice after catching Elias Jelert above the ankle as he attempted to shield the ball.

A Collapse

The dismissal sparked a collapse as United lost 4-3 late-on to fall to the bottom of their Champions League group.

A Lesser Ban

Rashford was always going to miss next week's trip to the "Hell" of Galatasary's Ali Sami Yen stadium as that is the automatic punishment. But despite Rashford being dismissed for violent conduct - a three-match ban in the Prem - UEFA's disciplinary committee settled for a single-game suspension, adjudging he was only guilty of "rough play".

Available for the Decisive Game

It means Rashford will be available to the Dutch manager when Harry Kane and Co arrive at Old Trafford for the likely decisive game next month.
