Nathan Sinkala, the Zambian midfielder from Sochaux, faced disciplinary action after being sent off against Montpellier for a dangerous tackle on Sanson. The LFP (French Professional Football League) disciplinary committee imposed a three-match suspension on Sinkala. The 23-year-old, who recently joined Sochaux at the request of Hervé Renard, received the red card in the 35th minute of the match for a tackle with both feet off the ground. The suspension poses a challenge for Sochaux in their efforts to secure maintenance in Ligue 1.
