Paris Saint-Germain striker Neymar has been banned for two games following the brawl against Marseille.
The disciplinary commission of French Professional Football (LFP) announced the Brazilian striker would be banned for two games plus one suspended. The match became a subject of controversy as five players including Neymar were given red cards.
A league statement added that defender Alvaro Gonzalo was being investigated after Neymar accused the Spaniard of using racist language towards him during the match.
Both players will now be looked at by the body’s Disciplinary Committee, with no further comment offered in the LFP’s statement released on Wednesday.
