Comparing Nemeth’s Suspension to Other Recent MLS Suspensions

In case you haven’t heard, Krisztian Nemeth’s one game red card suspension has been extended to a second game. So instead of simply missing the game against the second place Seattle Sounders, he’ll also miss today’s game against third place LA Galaxy.

First, let’s remember the foul in question.

There is no sugarcoating it. That challenge is horrific. Nemeth comes in late with his leg full extended and he gets Felipe Martins on the calf/ankle in a violent fashion with his studs up. The red card was well deserved.
