Cristian Romero Receives Red Card: Which Spurs Matches Will He Miss?
Cristian Romero, the captain of Tottenham Hotspur, received a straight red card during a Premier League match against Manchester United. This incident occurred just 30 minutes into the game on Saturday, resulting in a 2-0 loss for Spurs.
Cristian Romero’s Red Card Details
Romero’s dismissal was the result of a high tackle on Manchester United midfielder Casemiro. He caught Casemiro high on the ankle after misplaying the ball near his own penalty area. Following the match, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario reported that Romero expressed regret to his teammates.
Consequences of the Red Card
This latest red card marks Romero’s second of the season. Earlier, he had been sent off against Liverpool in December. As a result of his two red cards this season, Romero faces significant disciplinary action.
Matches He Will Miss
Romero’s suspension means he will miss four upcoming Premier League games. The matches include:
- Home game against Newcastle
- North London derby versus Arsenal
- London derby against Fulham
- London derby against Crystal Palace
Due to injury concerns, Spurs are currently struggling, making Romero’s absence even more challenging. He will remain unavailable until March 15, but he may be fit for UEFA Champions League fixtures during that time.
