Patrice Evra Suspended For Launching Kick at Fan

Paris (November 04, 2017): French footballer Patrice Evra has been suspended for at least one match after the Olympique Marseille defender aimed a high kick at one of his club’s own supporters before a Europa League match on Thursday.

Former Manchester United star Patrice Evra, who currently plies his trade with French club Marseille, was sent off in astonishing circumstances even before the Europa League match between Marseille and Vitoria Guimaraes started.

The sport’s European governing body UEFA and Marseille have launched investigations into the incident which led to the defender’s dismissal for violent conduct before kick-off.

UEFA’s Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body will discuss the case at its next meeting on November 10.

Under the governing body’s rules for misconduct of players and officials, Evra is potentially facing a minimum five-match ban. A statement on Marseille’s website said: “A professional player must keep his cool, face provocations and insults, as hard and unjustified as they are.

“Similarly, the club can only condemn by definition any destructive behavior of a pseudo supporter who insults his own players.”
