Matheus Cunha will not miss Manchester United's Premier League match against Aston Villa on Sunday after being sent off against Roma. Because suspensions from red cards in UEFA competitions do not carry over into the Premier League, he will instead serve a one-match ban against Sporting CP in Lisbon, Portugal, on Nov. 25.
Suspension date
Cunha received a pair of yellow cards against Roma and will serve a one-match suspension as a result. He will be banned when Manchester United face Sporting CP on Nov. 25.
How the cards came
Cunha's first caution came after his winning goal, when he took off his shirt before jumping into the crowd. Jesús Gil Manzano then cautioned Cunha again after his lunge on Balerdi in stoppage time.
Manchester United comeback
Manchester United came from 2–0 down at halftime to beat Roma, with Cunha scoring the equalizer and the winner. Bruno Fernandes converted a retaken penalty early in the second half. Roma failed to record a single shot in the second half.
