In Basel's 4-1 win over Sion on Sunday, striker Albian Ajeti played from the 69th minute. But in the 95th minute he was sent off. And because of that card, Basel will miss the next three games.
He was given a straight red card “for violent behavior and provocations.” Immediately on Monday, the Swiss league's disciplinary committee sentenced Ajeti to a three-match suspension.
