Mohammed Kudus Faces Two-Game Ban After Controversial Red Card Incident
- Mohammed Kudus has been banned from playing for a total of five games due to disciplinary actions.
- His suspension stems from a red card incident during a match against Tottenham Hotspur, where he pushed two opponents.
- Kudus's absence will impact West Ham's performance in upcoming crucial matches.
West Ham United suffered another setback when Mohammed Kudus received a retrospective two-game ban, making him unavailable until December. The Ghana forward was initially shown a yellow card during West Ham's 4-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The situation escalated when VAR intervened, resulting in Kudus receiving a red card for pushing Micky van de Ven in the face, which led to a hefty three-game suspension. Kudus's penalty was further extended after he admitted to a second charge for also shoving Pape Matar Sarr. He has already missed matches against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest and will now be sidelined for an important game against Everton as a result of these disciplinary actions. This incident highlights the challenges West Ham has faced during their difficult season start.
