Kyle Walker has had his Champions League suspension increased to three games following his red card against RB Leipzig, which was dubbed as an 'assault' by UEFA.
It comes as a major blow to Manchester City who will now be without the right-back for both legs of their last 16 tie against Sporting and, should Pep Guardiola's side advance, the first leg of the following quarter-final.
Walker's red card was already foolish as he was dismissed for a wild kick, without even trying to play the ball, on Leipzig's Andre Silva but was made even more so by the fact it came in the 81st minute of a dead rubber — with City already safely secured in top spot of their group.
