Angel Di Maria could face extended ban for remark at referee after Juventus red card

Angel Di Maria could be set for an extended spell on the sidelines in Serie A after he was shown a straight red card in a humbling defeat for Juventus.

The Old Lady lost 1-0 at Monza on Sunday after Christian Gytkjaer came off the bench to score the winner in what was a historic result for the newly-promoted club. Di Maria, 34, was given his marching orders towards the end of the first half after lashing out at Armando Izzo.

The winger was frustrated during a tussle with the defender and elbowed him in the chest, resulting in his dismissal to leave Juve with over half the game to play with 10 men. He will definitely miss the upcoming league games against Bologna and AC Milan as he serves a two-match ban.
