La Liga: Real Madrid's Vinicius Faces Possible Suspension For 12 Matches For Misconduct
Spanish La Liga: Real Madrid striker Vinicius Junior risks a suspension of four to 12 matches for pushing the opposing team’s goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski during the 79th minute of the La Liga match against Valencia, which ended 2-1 at the Mestella. After the incident, the Brazilian player was sent off. According to Spanish La Liga regulations, such aggressive behaviour without an attempt to play the ball is punishable by suspension.
According to Spanish language media outlet Mundo Deportivo, Vinicius will likely receive the minimum penalty of four matches. This could exclude him from participating in the Supercopa de Espana semifinal against Mallorca, and if they advance to the final, he may miss the match against Barcelona or Athletic Bilbao.
Vinicius has been with Real Madrid since July 2018. He has played a total of 286 matches for the club, scoring 97 goals and providing 83 assists. He was recently named the best player of 2024 at the FIFA Best Awards.
