Valletta captain Gilbert Agius was today given a two-match ban following his red card in his side’s 3-1 defeat to Sliema Wanderers.
Agius was sent off early in the second half of last Sunday’s match for a late tackle on Sliema striker Jean Pierre Mifsud Triganza.
The two-match suspension will prevent Agius from playing in Valletta’s match against relegation strugglers Msida St Joseph this Saturday and the top-of-the-table game against leaders Qormi the following week.
Birkirkara midfielder Shaun Bajada and Floriana duo Clifton Ciantar and Christian Caruana have been suspended for one match after all collected their fourth yellow card in last weekend’s matches.
