Aston Villa in shock after the FA rejects Jhon Durán’s red card appeal
In-form Villa striker will now be banned for three gamesUnai Emery believes ‘stamp’ on Schär was unintentional
Aston Villa are shocked and disappointed after the Football Association rejected their appeal against Jhon Durán’s red card, meaning the striker will serve a three-match ban.
The Colombian was given a straight red card by the referee, Anthony Taylor, after being adjudged to have intentionally stamped on the Newcastle defender Fabian Schär when the pair collided in the first half of Villa’s Boxing Day defeat.
