Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings will serve a five-match ban for violent conduct after a Football Association panel ruled he deliberately stood on the head of Manchester United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
The 23-year-old landed with his studs on the forward’s head during Saturday’s fiery 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
Ibrahimovic elbowed Mings shortly after, and accepted a three-match ban.
Bournemouth said they are “extremely disappointed” with the FA’s decision.
Mings will miss Bournemouth’s next five league matches before returning against Tottenham on April 15th.
