In a surprising turn of events, the AIFF disciplinary committee has issued suspensions in the aftermath of the intense Mohun Bagan vs Mumbai City FC clash in the Indian Super League (ISL).
Liston Colaco, the forward for Mohun Bagan, has been handed a four-match ban, marking his actions as the most severe during the incident-filled encounter.
Mumbai City FC’s defender, Akash Mishra, is also facing consequences with a three-match suspension, emphasizing his role in the on-field drama.
Other players from both teams are now serving one-match suspensions.
Speculation surrounds Mumbai City FC’s captain, Greg Stewart, who might face a one-match ban, pending official confirmation.
Both Colaco and Mishra have the option to appeal their suspensions, introducing a possibility of adjustments in the duration of their bans.
The repercussions are felt by Mohun Bagan and Mumbai City FC as they navigate lineup adjustments for upcoming matches. Colaco’s absence is a significant blow to Mohun Bagan’s attack, while Mishra’s suspension adds defensive challenges for Mumbai City.
The committee’s decisions prompt discussions about fair play and player conduct within the ISL, emphasizing the need for professionalism and composure on the field.
As the ISL community awaits further developments, the league’s response to these disciplinary measures and their potential impact on the rest of the season remains a topic of interest.
