Esteban Andrada was shown a yellow card during Zaragoza's 1-0 defeat to Huesca and received a second booking in the 99th minute, leading to his ejection. Instead of leaving the pitch, he ran to punch Huesca captain Jorge Pulido in the face, provoking a brawl.
This morning, the Sporting Judge has released its standard statement about the action from the previous day, and AC Milan may be a little shocked. Given it was the only game left of the matchday, the Sporting Judge has released a specific statement for the game between Milan and Como, detailing the outcomes of the suspensions, and there is shockingly no mention of Cesc Fabregas.
The punishments follow official inquiries into their conduct after undercover investigations by the Guardian revealed how the two peers separately offered to make introductions to ministers for a potential commercial client.

I lost my temper Sunday against Ireland. I know this is not acceptable and I am aware that this puts an end to my World Cup. I would like to apologise to Aoife Wafer and Team Ireland, my teammates and staff, FFR and all those who support us. It's not the image I want to give, nor the player I want to be. I accept the sanction. Rugby is a respect sport and this gesture has nothing to do on a rugby field.
Inter Miami striker Luis Suárez has been given a six-game suspension by the Leagues Cup Organizing Committee for spitting at a Seattle Sounders staff member following Sunday's Leagues Cup final. The Sounders triumphed 3-0 over Miami before a brawl broke out following the final whistle, which saw Suárez have to be held back by teammates and coaches before spitting on a member of the opposing team's staff. Amid the melee, Miami midfielder Sergio Busquets threw a punch at Seattle's Obed Vargas while Miami defender Tomás Avilés was also involved in aggressive behavior.

Among the procedural shenanigans: punter Thomas Morstead got released, almost assuredly for just 24 hours so a player can slide Wednesday on to non-season-ending Injured Reserve, such as wide receiver Jacob Cowing. Almost half of the roster is devoted to the trenches. They've kept 10 offensive linemen (yes to rookie Drew Moss, no to guard Nick Zakelj).
James Wisniewski's career was overshadowed by his suspension incidents, despite being a talented point-producing defenseman known for his contributions on the ice.
