Fabian Delph will be suspended for Manchester City’s Carabao Cup final against Arsenal, after he was sent off in their 1-0 defeat to Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup on Monday.
Delph was shown a red card just before half time, after his reckless sliding challenge caught Max Power.
Referee Anthony Taylor initially brought out a yellow card, but then showed red after protests from Wigan and talking with the fourth official.
Delph will now serve an automatic three-game ban, meaning he will also miss Premier League clashes against Arsenal and Chelsea.
City manager, Pep Guardiola, could also face a disciplinary investigation after confronting Wigan staff in the tunnel.
