Spurs’ bid to reduce Bentancur ban fails as Cunha charged over Wolves melee
Seven-match suspension upheld over Son commentsWolves forward in spotlight after ugly scenes at Ipswich
Tottenham’s appeal to reduce Rodrigo Bentancur’s seven-match ban over comments he made about teammate Son Heung-min has been dismissed.
The Uruguay midfielder was given the suspension by an independent commission on 18 November and two days later, Spurs indicated they would appeal. On Tuesday, the Football Association confirmed an appeal board had dismissed Tottenham’s challenge against that sanction.
