Atletico Madrid forward Angel Correa was sent off in his side’s 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano at the weekend for allegedly abusing the referee.
The Argentine had reportedly shouted ‘your mother’s c***’ at the official, forcing him to brandish a straight red card.
The praise he had said was ‘La concha de tu madre!’, which roughly translates to ‘your mother’s shell’ but has a more abusive meaning.
If he’s found guilty of abusing the referee, Correa could face a 4-match ban instead of serving the regular 2 game punishment for straight red cards.
