The Football Association are mulling over whether to file an appeal calling for Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts to serve a ban longer than three games for his horrific challenge on Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta.
Roberts came flying out of his goal, made slight contact with the ball with a high-kick, but followed through with his studs and caught Mateta in the ear. Mateta was rushed to St George’s Hospital in Tooting, London, and received 25 stitches to his left ear.
