Burnley manager Vincent Kompany receives touchline suspension following red card

Posted : 11 April 2024

Vincent Kompany, manager of Burnley, faces repercussions after receiving a red card during the match against Chelsea on March 30th. His actions led to a two-match touchline suspension, with one game served immediately and another deferred until the year's end.

 

Kompany's dismissal stemmed from his protest against a penalty decision that resulted in Lorenz Assignon's expulsion. Expressing his dissatisfaction, Kompany criticized the standard of refereeing in this season's Premier League, emphasizing its inadequacy.

 

In addition to his suspension, Kompany, the former Manchester City captain, admitted to misconduct and incurred a £10,000 fine. The incident unfolded when Assignon received a second yellow card for a foul on Mykhailo Mudryk in the penalty area shortly before halftime at Stamford Bridge. This setback adds to Burnley's challenges as they currently languish in 19th place in the Premier League, trailing six points behind the safety margin.

 

Burnley's disciplinary woes extend beyond Kompany's incident, with seven of their players receiving red cards in 32 Premier League games this season, the highest tally in the top flight. Despite the setbacks, Burnley prepares to face Brighton at Turf Moor on Saturday, albeit without Kompany on the touchline due to his one-game ban.
